Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup (240ml) buttermilk or plain yogurt diluted with a splash of milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (225g) fresh or frozen blueberries
  • Optional: turbinado sugar or coarse sugar for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease your muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add melted butter, buttermilk, and vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together with a spatula until just combined; a few lumps are fine.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries, coating them lightly in the batter to prevent sinking.
  6. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Sprinkle with turbinado sugar if desired.
  7. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Freeze muffins individually on a tray for 2 hours, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container.
  10. To reheat, thaw at room temperature or microwave for 20–30 seconds.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep muffins tender. Use room temperature eggs and buttermilk for a lighter crumb. Fold blueberries gently and keep them frozen to prevent batter discoloration. Freeze muffins individually before storing to avoid clumping. Use a toothpick test to check doneness.
