Perfect Blueberry Muffins Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 cup buttermilk (see note below for substitution)
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 and 1/2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen; do not thaw if using frozen)

For the Topping (Optional):

  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Muffin Pan: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or grease the cups with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and use a spatula to fold everything together just until combined. Avoid over-mixing to maintain the muffins’ texture.
  5. Add Blueberries: Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
  6. Fill Muffin Cups: Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  7. Add Topping (Optional): If desired, mix the sugar and cinnamon for the topping and sprinkle over the top of each muffin.
  8. Bake: Bake for 5 minutes at 425°F (220°C), then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for an additional 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Cool: Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy your freshly baked Blueberry Muffins, perfect for breakfast, as a snack, or whenever you crave a delightful treat!
