Equipment

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients:

Wet Ingredients:

  • ½ cup 120ml unsalted butter, melted (or vegetable oil)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup 240ml buttermilk (or whole milk)
  • 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract

Add-ins:

  • 1 ½ cups 225g fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 tbsp flour to coat the blueberries

Optional Topping:

  • 2 tbsp coarse sugar for a crunchy top

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven:

  • Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners or grease it with cooking spray.

Prepare the Dry Ingredients:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Mix the Wet Ingredients:

  • In another bowl, whisk together melted butter (or oil), eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Combine Wet & Dry Ingredients:

  • Gradually add the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Add Blueberries:

  • Toss the blueberries with 1 tbsp flour to prevent them from sinking. Gently fold them into the batter using a spatula.

Fill the Muffin Cups:

  • Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full. If desired, sprinkle tops with coarse sugar.

Bake the Muffins:

  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cool & Serve:

  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack.

Notes

Tips To Improve Your Blueberry Muffins

  • Use frozen blueberries if fresh ones aren’t available (do not thaw before adding).
  • For extra flavor, add ½ tsp cinnamon or lemon zest.
  • Make the muffins healthier by substituting half the flour with whole wheat flour.
