Tender, fluffy muffins bursting with fresh blueberries, with a delicate crumb and golden-brown tops. Perfect for breakfast or a sweet snack.
Ingredients
- 2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cup fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoon all-purpose flour, for coating berries
Steps
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together sugar and egg until combined.
- Add vegetable oil, milk, and vanilla extract to the egg mixture. Whisk until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a wooden spoon until just combined; do not overmix. The batter should be lumpy.
- In a small bowl, toss the blueberries with 2 tablespoons flour to coat lightly. This prevents them from sinking.
- Fold the coated blueberries into the batter gently until just distributed.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-22 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out with only a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from oven and let cool in the tin for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
