Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk (room temperature)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Main Fruit

  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar to ensure even distribution of the leavening and flavors.
  2. Mix the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and combine them with melted unsalted butter, milk, and vanilla extract to form a smooth, aromatic mixture.
  3. Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture just until incorporated. Avoid overmixing to keep the muffins tender and fluffy.
  4. Add fresh blueberries: Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, keeping them whole to maintain juicy bursts throughout the batter.
  5. Portion and bake: Divide the batter evenly into a greased or lined muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes or until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • Keep blueberries cold and toss them lightly with flour before folding in to prevent sinking.
  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid tough muffins with tunnels.
  • Use fresh blueberries where possible for the best flavor and texture.
  • Use room temperature eggs and milk to improve batter consistency.
  • Lightly spray muffin liners with oil to help muffins release smoothly without sticking.
