Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 3/4 cup (180ml) buttermilk, room temperature
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups (225g) fresh blueberries, washed and patted dry
  • Optional: Turbinado sugar or coarse sugar for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line your muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until slightly frothy. Add melted butter, buttermilk, and vanilla extract and mix gently until uniform.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold gently with a spatula just until combined. The batter should be thick but slightly lumpy; do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed without smashing.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Sprinkle turbinado or coarse sugar on top if desired.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Rotate the pan halfway through baking for even browning.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to prevent soggy bottoms.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs and buttermilk for best rise. Fold blueberries gently to keep them whole. If muffins brown too quickly, tent with foil for last 5 minutes. Avoid overmixing batter to prevent dense muffins. Frozen blueberries can be used straight from freezer without thawing to avoid color bleed.
