Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease muffin cups or line with muffin liners.

Mix together 1/2 cup sugar, 1/3 cup flour, butter, and cinnamon in a small bowl with a fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set topping aside.

Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, remaining 3/4 cup sugar, and baking powder in a large bowl. Place applesauce into a 1-cup measuring cup; add egg and enough milk to measure 1 cup; stir well, then mix into flour mixture until just combined. Fold in blueberries. Fill the prepared muffin cups to the top and sprinkle with topping.
