  • Author: ushinzomr

Description

Deliciously moist and fluffy blueberry muffins bursting with fresh blueberries, perfect for breakfast or a snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • Optional: coarse sugar for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or spray with cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mix the melted butter and sugar until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Mix in the buttermilk until smooth.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in the blueberries gently to avoid breaking them.
  7. Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. If desired, sprinkle coarse sugar on top.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh blueberries. If using frozen, do not thaw them beforehand.
  • You can add lemon zest for a citrusy flavor.
  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
