Blueberry Crumble Muffin

 
I was curving for muffin and also to clear my blueberry that has been leaving in the freezer for quite a time. I was flipping thorough my baking books and found this recipe with Crumble Topping.


I using a size smaller muffin liners than the usual size and in the end I had 10 muffin instead of 6. Guess what, the crumble is not enough for all the 10 muffin, only manage to serve the crumble for 6 muffin and the other 4 without any topping.

Not very satisfied with the result because the muffin didn't rise at all, even those muffin without crumble didn't rise too. My mother ask me why, I guess it might be due to the oven temperature. I have a difficult time to control my oven temperature well, if I set the temperature at 180°C but the real temperature inside the oven is only at 150°C.

Anyway the taste of the muffin is crunchy on the top and the centre are moist & fluffy with a little sour of the blueberry filling.
