Blueberry season means Crumbl blueberry muffin cookies! I’ve been definitely slacking on these a little. Especially since I received so many requests for these the week they came out at Crumbl.
But hey, life gets in the way, exhaustion happens and you just have to take a moment to regroup before coming back stronger (with the best Crumbl cookie recipes on the internet!)
This is the best blueberry muffin cookie with streusel on top.
The special thing when it comes to this recipe is that the cookie dough has both blueberries and swirls of blueberry jam in it. I am not sure if that’s how the Crumbl one was made but I just figured that that’s how I wanted to really bring out the blueberry flavors and allow those swirls to really show.
The cookies are then topped with a homemade streusel topping which in my books can literally elevate anything really. The balance of salty and sweetness of the streusel, fresh blueberries, and jam, as well as the texture of the cookies, will just blow your mind!

Frequently asked questions – FAQ
How to store streusel blueberry muffin cookies?
These cookies can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Be aware that these cookies will be best the day you make them because that’s when the streusel will have the best crunchy sugar-crusted surface effect.
If you want to be extra like me, you can reheat your cookies in the oven or in the air fryer for a few minutes.
Can I freeze blueberry muffin cookies?
You sure can! These cookies freeze well, just pop them in an airtight container and freeze for up to 1 month.
Once you’re ready to enjoy these thaw them in the fridge overnight or on the countertop for a few hours.
Can I fuse frozen blueberries?
You can use frozen blueberries but make sure that you are really drying them off really well so that the dough texture doesn’t change too much. Smaller frozen blueberries or wild frozen blueberries are best in the recipe too!
Can I make smaller blueberry muffin cookies?
Absolutley!
Instead of making 8 large cookies make 16 smaller ones. Bake them for 10 minutes instead of 14 minutes. Continue with the recipe as you would the giant-sized cookie except that now you’ll have more smaller cookies that can feed a crowd 🙂

- Cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and creamy. Add in the egg, vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.

- Drop small dollops of jam onto the cookie dough and swirl with a chopstick, a knife, or a small spatula. Don't over swirl, we want to keep visible streaks of jam in the cookie dough.

Everyone loved this recipe! Going to try and add oats to the next one
Chahinez
I’m glad they went down a hit!
Norma
I baked these almost exactly as the recipe states. I found the streusel did not adhere well enough so I took the cookies out of the oven at about 9 minutes, added the streusel on top, and then baked for the reminding 5 minutes. Worked great! This might be my new favorite cookie. Thanks so much for the recipe.
Chahinez
You’re very welcome!! Glad to hear they came out okay in the end.
Shauna Owens
Another great recipe, going to keep trying more!

Ginger
The cookie part of the recipe doesn’t say whether the stick of butter should be softened. The crumble part does. I plan on making these later today. Softened butter for the cookie?
Chahinez
Yes, softened butter for the cookie dough.
Diane
Thank you for THE most delicious cookie recipe, moist, sweet but not too sweet and the streusel topping is amazing! The measurements were spot on! Everyone raved about these blueberry cookies. Definitely making again and again and again!! I can’t wait to try another recipe, they all look delicious.
Chahinez
You’re welcome Diane! Thank you for your comment!
Caitlin
These cookies were absolutely delicious. They were so soft and sweet! They were also very fluffy, which some other copycat crumbl recipes lack. The recipe was really easy with common ingredients one has around! Would definitely recommend!
Chahinez
Thank you so much!
Alicia
Can I freeze the dough?
Chahinez
Yes you can!
Rachel
What size cookie scoop did you use?
Chahinez
Sorry for the late reply! For this recipe, I just focused on making the 8 dough balls even instead of using a scoop. So, what you can do is form into a ball and then cut it with a knife starting with half, then quarter, etc. Or you can use a food scale and measure out each one individually until they’re even.
Amber
There seems to be a discrepancy between the US and Metric measurements for the baking soda and baking powder. Can you clarify whether we do .5 tsp powder or soda (and .25 tsp of the other)? The US says .5 tsp soda but the metric says .5 tsp powder. Thanks!
Chahinez
Thank you so much for pointing that out! Just fixed it.
Mercedes
Thanks for sharing in diff types of measure.
Chahinez
You’re so welcome!
Kelly

Chahinez
YAY!!! So glad to hear that!
Danielle Hosper
Very yummy! Bonus if you add creme cheese frosting!
Chahinez
OMG! That sounds delish!
Fatima
Love! Now one of my fave recipes to make. I did use frozen blueberries and it was delish however cold temp did make the dough difficult to scoop. I would def use fresh blueberry and jam as suggested in this recipe
Chahinez
Thank you for sharing your experience Fatima!
Shannon
Hi! I’m curious as to the addition of corn starch. Is it to ensure juice from the blueberries thickens up?
Chahinez
It helps create a crumbly and tender dessert-like texture for the cookies 🙂
Kacey Odum
Can the blueberries make the cookie soggy after 2-3 days?
Chahinez
No 🙂
Ava

Do you think a blueberry cookie with raspberry jam swirl could be nice? I wasn’t able to find blueberry jam at my local store!
Carolyn Lawson
I made these cookies with fresh raspberries and raspberry jam. Incredible!!!!
Chahinez
That’s awesome!
Kacey
Could you add lemon zest or juice/extract or a bit of both to this recipe??
Chahinez
Yes you can!! I would add 1 tbsp lemon zest to the cookie dough. Don’t add any juice because it will change the texture of the cookie dough too much.
Marquee 3
