Ingredients
  

  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 6 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon corn starch
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 ½ cups fresh berries (about 1 cup blueberries and ½ cup raspberries)
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 ½ – 2 ½ teaspoons milk or cream

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 F, line the cupcake pan with paper liners, and set aside. This recipe makes 9-10 muffins.
  2. To create the crumb topping, combine flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Pour in the melted butter and mix with a fork until coarse crumbs form. Set aside.
For the cream cheese filling, blend softened cream cheese, sugar, corn starch, and vanilla in a bowl until combined.
  1. In a large bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, and salt, then set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg and granulated sugar together until well combined. Add yogurt, oil, and vanilla extract, mixing until the mixture is pale and yellow.
  3. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until everything is well combined.
  4. Using a rubber spatula, fold in about ½ cup of blueberries, mixing well, then gently incorporate half of the raspberries, taking care not to tint the batter pink. Reserve the remaining berries for topping the muffins.
  5. To assemble the muffins, place about 1 ½ tablespoons of muffin batter in each cup. Create a small dent in the center and drop in about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture. Add a few berries on top, filling each cup about 2/3 to ¾ full.
  6. Generously sprinkle each muffin with the streusel crumbs. Add a few blueberries and raspberry chunks on top and gently press the crumbs into the muffin batter.
  7. Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and reduce the temperature to 350 F. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the centers are set.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Meanwhile, prepare the glaze by mixing powdered sugar with milk or cream. Start with 1 teaspoon of liquid and gradually add more until the desired consistency is reached. Drizzle over the muffins and serve.
