Ingredients

160g all purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
100g white sugar
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 generous tablespoons grated lemon zest
113g unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons plain yogurt or milk
60ml lemon juice
75g wild blueberries, thawed and drained

Directions

Step 1
In a small bowl, combine 56g of butter, a pinch of salt, 40g of flour, 50g of white sugar, and 15g of brown sugar. Use a fork to mix until it forms pea-sized crumbs. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together 160g flour, 1 teaspoon salt, baking powder, and baking soda; set aside.
Step 3
In a large bowl, mix 100g white sugar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and lemon zest. Let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes.
Step 4
Preheat the oven to 190°C. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line cups with paper liners.
Step 5
Add the remaining 57g of butter to the bowl with the lemon zest. Beat with an electric hand mixer or whisk until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time. Add vanilla extract, yogurt, and lemon juice, and mix briefly to just combine.
Step 6
Add the flour mixture, and blend just until flour disappears.
Step 7
Divide the batter equally between the prepared muffin cups. Top each muffin with a heaping teaspoon of blueberries, and lightly press berries down in the center. Divide the crumb mixture evenly over the muffins.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a skewer inserted near the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes before removing to a wire rack. Cool completely before serving.
