Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with butter.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the buttermilk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—the batter should be slightly lumpy.
- Add Blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Fill Muffin Tin: Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
- Bake: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Cool: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Expert Tips
- Use Fresh Blueberries: Fresh blueberries are ideal, but frozen ones work just as well. If using frozen, do not thaw them before adding to the batter.
- Don’t Overmix: Overmixing the batter can result in dense muffins. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
- Add a Streusel Topping: For an extra touch, sprinkle a streusel topping over the muffins before baking. Check out our Bakery Style Streusel Blueberry Muffins for inspiration.
- Storage: Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
FAQ
Can I use frozen blueberries?
Yes! Frozen blueberries work perfectly. Just toss them in a bit of flour before folding them into the batter to prevent sinking.
How do I make my muffins taller?
For taller muffins, fill the muffin cups to the top and bake at a slightly higher temperature (400°F) for the first 5 minutes, then reduce to 375°F.
Can I substitute buttermilk?
If you don’t have buttermilk, mix 1 cup of milk with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar and let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
