In a medium-sized bowl, sift or whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2 cups (250 grams) flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt
In a separate large bowl, whisk the sugar, eggs, milk, oil, lemon zest, vanilla and lemon extracts until the mixture is smooth.
1 cup (200 grams) granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 3/4 cup (177 ml) milk of choice, 1/2 cup (120) canola or vegetable oil, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract, 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon extract
Pour the dry flour mixture into the wet ingredients. Gently fold them together and get rid of any huge lumps. Smaller lumps are okay.
Cut the blackberries in half, leaving any smaller blackberries whole. If you’re using frozen berries, you don’t need to let them thaw to cut them.
2 cups (272) fresh or frozen unthawed blackberries
Toss the berries with the extra 2 teaspoons of flour, then gently fold it into the batter, leaving any excess flour behind in the bowl.
Divide the batter evenly among the cups, filling them about 4/5 full (about 77 grams each). Sprinkle a generous amount of streusel (18 grams - a heaping tablespoon) over each muffin.
Bake for 18-22 minutes (closer to 18 for fresh blackberries and 22 for frozen) or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes back with just a few crumbs, but no liquid batter.
Let the muffins rest in the hot pan for 10 minutes and then carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.
