If you love the muffin top more than the entire muffin, you’re going to love my Blueberry Lemon Muffin Tops! This recipe is so easy, I might not ever make full muffins again.

I’m guilty! I love the oversized muffin top on bakery-style muffins. But I bet you didn’t know you you can make just the muffin top and not the entire muffin – it’s true! And nothing is better than a muffin top filling with berries. My Blueberry Muffin Tops are my new g0-to breakfast treat.

Fresh Blueberries

I always use fresh berries when I’m baking with fruit. I chose blueberries for this recipe and since I think lemons and blueberries go so well together, I glaze the muffin tops with a lemon glaze.

Ingredients-Blueberry Lemon Muffin Tops

You might be surprised by my list of ingredients because I used cream cheese which makes the muffin tops light and fluffy. You might think of them as a cross between a muffin top and a fluffy cookie.

  • Fresh blueberries
  • Flour
  • Cream cheese
  • Butter
  • Sugar
  • Eggs
  • Vanilla
  • Baking powder and baking soda
  • Salt
  • Milk

It may seem like a long list, but I bet you have most of these in your pantry or refrigerator already. I know everything on this list is always available in my kitchen…even fresh blueberries! I swear I go through a pint a week.

What’s the Difference Between Baking Powder and Soda?

Both Baking Powder and Baking Soda are leavening agents which means they help to make your food rise. Baking Powder, actually contains baking soda and also corn starch and cream of tartar. The leavening and the reaction of both to heat is all about science but what you need to know is that together they work to leaven, enhance flavor and promote browning.
