Blueberry Muffins

I had some blueberries so this morning we had fresh blueberry muffins--a real treat!

1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup oil
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
1 cup blueberries

Preheat oven to 400. Grease muffin cups or line with muffin liners. Combine flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Measure oil into a 1 cup liquid measuring cup. Add egg and enough milk to make 1 cup. Whisk together. Mix with flour mixture until just barely mixed. Carefully fold in blueberries. (I like to cut mine in half so you have blueberries in more bites. If I use frozen, I do a quick chop with the food chopper before adding them.) Fill muffin cups and sprinkle with crumb topping. (below) Bake for 20-25 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick. (sometimes they look done when they are not done in the middle)

Topping:
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup flour
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Mix well.
