Blueberry Muffins with Yummy Crumbly Topping

My sister came all the way from Texas for Christmas along with her husband and babies. I loved waking up with warm coffee and one morning I tried my hand at blueberry muffins. I wanted to perfect the crumbly topping and I think this one is really delicious. My sister liked them extra blueberry-y so I added a half cup which was really good but I think I would keep it at a cup in the future for the delectable mix between the pastry and blueberry. YUM. Easy and so worth it. Enjoy!
