How to make muffins from cake mix

Step 1: Grate the lemon zest. Add the eggs, milk, lemon zest, and olive oil to a bowl. Whisk the wet ingredients until completely combined.

Step 2: Open up a box of vanilla cake mix and place it in a bowl. Mix the wet ingredients into the cake mix, stirring until just combined.

Step 3: Rinse and pat the blueberries completely dry. Fold the blueberries into the cake mix muffin batter gently with a rubber spatula.

Step 4: Make the streusel topping for the blueberry muffins. Combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and flour in a bowl. Stir it up to combine the ingredients.

Step 5: Line a muffin tin with muffin liners. Distribute the blueberry muffin batter evenly into the muffin tins.

Step 6: Distribute the streusel topping over the muffin batter.

Step 7: Bake the cake mix blueberry muffins at 350 degrees for 23-28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

You kitchen will be smelling like a bakery.
