Blueberry Corn Muffins with Streusel Topping


The summer is fading fast, and with it disappear the carefree days of not applying for residency and not writing personal statements.  In celebration of my stress and procrastination tactics, I made muffins!  Blueberry muffins are my favorite, and this combines a little bit of the texture of a corn muffin too.  The lemon zest adds just a touch of lemon flavor, enough to brighten the batter, but not enough to be overtly lemon-y.  Frozen blueberries also work just fine, so this is a good year-round recipe.

I am a firm believer in streusel's ability to make anything taste better.  Could you do without the flourbuttersugarstreusel?  Technically, yes, but you would regret it.
