Aunt Betty's Blueberry Muffins

This is a GREAT blueberry muffin recipe! We all really enjoyed this one for breakfast. I had to add a little bit of milk to the batter as it was very thick and several of the reviews I read mentioned the muffins were dry or crumbly. With the additional liquid I thought these came out great. The texture was really nice, and they weren't overly dry or crumbly at all, just tender. Great with or without a little butter! They seemed to taste even better after cooling for awhile.

I really liked the cinnamon sugar topping on these, they were very coffee cake like across the top with the slight crunch from the topping. Very good!
