  • Total Time: 30-35 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil or melted unsalted butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup milk (dairy or plant-based)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add the oil (or melted butter), vanilla extract, and milk. Mix well.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix to keep the muffins tender.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring even distribution throughout the batter.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Add a few drops of blue food coloring to enhance the blue appearance if desired.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding lemon zest to the batter.
  • Use frozen blueberries, simply thaw and drain to prevent excess moisture.
