Directions

  1. Rinse the blueberries in a colander under cool running water and set aside to drain.

  4. Fold in the blueberries, lemon juice, and powdered sugar until well combined.
  5. Grease and flour a jumbo muffin tin. Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups.
  6. In a separate bowl, mix the oatmeal, butter, brown sugar, and flour until crumbly. Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the muffin batter.
  7. Bake at 375°F for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack before serving.

Substitutions and Variations

  • No frozen custard? Regular vanilla ice cream works just fine for these blueberry ice cream muffins. Let it soften first so it mixes easily.
  • Frozen blueberries can be used if needed. Don’t thaw them first. Just fold them in gently.
  • Want extra flavor? Add lemon zest or a splash of vanilla extract to the batter.
  • Not into oatmeal streusel? Swap the oats for chopped pecans or walnuts.
