Rinse fresh or canned blueberries with cool water, and discard any crushed ones. Do not thaw frozen blueberries. Pull off any stems from blueberries.<\/p>\n<p>Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl, adding the blueberries last. Stir thoroughly to mix all ingredients.<\/p>\n<p>Mix wet ingredients in a small bowl.<\/p>\n<p>Pour wet ingredients over dry and mix thoroughly until all the dry is mixed and wet.<\/p>\n<p>Heat the oven to 400\u00b0F. Spray just the bottoms of 12 regular-size muffin cups with the cooking spray, or line each cup with a paper baking cup.<\/p>\n<p>Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, dividing batter evenly. Sprinkle evenly with the streusel topping. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. If baked in a sprayed pan, let stand about 5 minutes in the pan, then remove muffins from pan to a cooling rack. If baked in paper baking cups, immediately remove muffins from the pan to a cooling rack. Serve warm or cool.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WHAT IF I AM NOT GLUTEN FREE?<\/strong><br \/>\nStart preheating your oven before you mix any ingredients. Instead of the first 2 ingredients just use plain \/ all-purpose flour, likewise for the streusel topping.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THIS COMES OUT TOO SWEET, WHAT CAN I DO?<\/strong><br \/>\nIn the streusel topping substitute a good quality cooking oil such as avocado oil or regular (not extra virgin) olive oil. If you use a finishing sugar or other large grain sugar you get a nice crunch on the top as well as an almost savoury edge from the fruit oil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you have a load of nice local blueberries, one feels obligated to bake with them.
