Instructions
Prep Time: 15 minute / Cook Time: 23-25 minute
Brown Sugar Oat Crumble
Step 1

In the bowl of a food processor, add all ingredients and pulse them at high speed until the mixture has come together to form a thick, crumbly consistency. Place in the fridge to chill while continuing to prepare the muffin batter.

Lavender Blueberry Muffins
Step 1

Preheat the oven to 365˚F and line a muffin/cupcake tin with 12 muffin liners.

Step 2

Sift the flour, baking powder, and kosher salt together in a medium-sized bowl and set aside.

Step 3

Place the C&H® Light Brown Sugar and lavender buds into the bowl of your food processor and process for 30 seconds. Sift into a small bowl, discarding the excess lavender buds and set aside.

Step 4

In a separate large bowl, whisk together the lavender brown sugar, eggs, oil, vanilla & lavender extract, lemon zest and sour cream until well combined.

Step 5

Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and gently fold together until smooth, making sure not to overmix. Fold in the blueberries until combined.

Step 6

Scoop the batter into the muffin cups until ⅔ of the way full. Sprinkle with chilled crumble before baking for 23-25 minutes or until you start to see a hint of browning around the edges of the muffin. Remove from oven and let cool before icing.

Lemon Lavender Icing
Step 1

Place the lemon juice, blueberries and lavender extract in a medium sized bowl, whisking to combine. Add your sifted C&H® Powdered Sugar whisking until smooth. Drizzle over cooled muffins and enjoy!

Additional Tips
  1. Test whether your muffins are done by inserting a toothpick into the center of a muffin. If the toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs, you can remove the muffins from the oven.
  2. If you would like to thicken your icing, add another few tablespoons of C&H® Powdered Sugar - alternatively, if you prefer an even thinner icing, you could add some additional mashed blueberries or lemon juice.
  3. Make your crumble first. This allows it plenty of time to firm up in the fridge so you get real sizeable chunks instead of a sandy topping
  4. Only fill muffin tin 2/3 full. There’s a temptation to get as much flavor as possible into each muffin but you’ll risk making quite a mess.
