Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) and prepare a muffin tin by greasing or lining it with liners.
  2. In one bowl, mix together all-purpose flour, light brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, vegetable oil, egg, vanilla extract, and Greek yogurt until smooth.
  4. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients gently until just mixed; avoid over-mixing.
  5. Fold in blueberries that have been tossed in flour to prevent sinking.
  6. Prepare the cream cheese filling by beating softened cream cheese with sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla until smooth.

  8. Top each muffin with additional blueberries before baking for about 22 minutes or until golden brown.
