For the Bread: | |
1 stick butter | |
3/4 cup sugar | |
1 egg | |
1 tsp Pure Almond Extract | |
1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract | |
2 cups flour | |
2 tsp baking powder | |
1 tsp Baker's Salt | |
1/2 cup buttermilk | |
2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries | |
For the Streusel: | |
3 Tbl cold butter | |
2 Tbl flour | |
2 Tbl brown sugar |
1. | Preheat the oven to 350°. Spray a 9X5 muffin pan with nonstick spray. Create the streusel by rubbing together the cold butter, flour and brown sugar until it's a crumbly consistency. Set in the fridge until ready to use. |
2. | Combine the flour, baking powder and salt. |
3. | Using a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, Vanilla Extract and Almond Extract. |
4. | Add the flour mixture and buttermilk, a little at a time, alternating between the two. Quickly fold in the blueberries. Top with the streusel. |
5. | Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs. Allow to cool for 20 mins in the pan, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely. |
