Streusel Topping (optional)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners.
Mix the butter and sugar in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium-high speed until combined and fluffy. As an alternative to a stand mixer, use a large mixing bowl and an electric hand mixer
Add the eggs one at a time and mix on medium speed. Scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
Pour in the buttermilk and continue mixing the muffin batter until a smooth batter forms, scraping the sides of the bowl if necessary.
Stir together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Transfer the dry ingredients into the stand mixer with the wet ingredients and beat until a smooth batter forms.
Fold the fresh blueberries into the batter.
Fill the muffin holes of the prepared muffin tin ¾ of the way up with batter.
Make the Streusel Topping (optional):
Combine all of the ingredients for the streusel topping in a small bowl. Sprinkle the topping mixture over the muffin batter. Note: If you aren't making the crumb topping, you can top the muffins with extra blueberries.
Bake muffins on the center rack of the preheated oven for 22-35 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top and test clean. Insert a thermometer into the middle of a muffin to check its internal temperature for doneness. Muffins are ready once they have reached an internal temperature of 190 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit in the center.
Remove the muffins from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
