    Recipe Introduction


    Originally, muffins were rather plain bread. Then over the years
    Americans started making them sweeter and more like a cake. This
    blueberry-filled version has a delicious sugar-and-spice topping.

    combined. Fold in blueberries.

    Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full sprinkle with the streusel topping.
