7. Add half of the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, mix, and then add half the sour cream. Repeat this by adding the remaining dry ingredients and sour cream. Mix until everything is combined.

8. Gently fold in blueberries and strawberries.

9. Scoop a little less than 1/4 cup of batter into each muffin tin.
10. Sprinkle crumb topping on each muffin.
