Ingredients
  

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
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for coating blueberries)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with butter.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mix the buttermilk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour. This helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the muffins.
  6. Gently fold the blueberries into the muffin batter.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes at 425°F (220°C), then reduce the temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for even mixing. Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense muffins. Start with a high oven temperature for tall, domed tops. Fresh blueberries are recommended for the best flavor.
