Blueberry Pecan Streusel Muffins

My neighbor made me these AMAZING muffins and I had to steal the recipe from her.  I'll have to update this post later with the name of the book this recipe came from, something along the lines of '100 Best Muffin Recipes.'  These are, hands down, the best blueberry muffins I have ever had!

MUFFINS:
1 1/2 C. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
6 Tbsp. butter (softened)
1/2 C. Sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 C. milk
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries

STREUSEL TOPPING:
2 Tbsp. melted butter
2 Tbsp. brown sugar
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 Cup. Chopped pecans

Preheat oven to 400 F. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.  Cream butter and sugar together in stand mixer bowl.  Beat in egg and vanilla.  Add flour alternately with milk.  Fold in blueberries.

Mix together streusel topping ingredients in separate bowl.

Line or grease muffin pan.  Fill cups 2/3 full with batter.  Top each with approx. 1 tsp. streusel topping.  Bake 20 minutes.
