3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Make topping in small bowl by mixing all topping ingredients with a fork until crumbly. Set aside.

In medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Add vegetable oil, beaten egg, and milk. Mix together well by hand. Add blueberries and gently fold into batter. Fill muffin cups about 3/4 full. Sprinkle top with the crumble topping (about 1 teaspoon per muffin, or add desired amount).
