Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 cup blueberries fresh or frozen
  • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • sparking sugar optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat air fryer at 400 degrees F for 3 minutes. If using a muffin tin, spray it with nonstick cooking spray. Silicone muffin liners don't need cooking spray.
  2. Whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder in a medium bowl.
  3. Place the blueberries in a separate bowl. Take 2 tablespoons of the dry ingredients and mix it with the blueberries. This helps keep the berries from all falling to the bottom of the muffins.
  4. Pour the oil into a measuring cup. Then add the egg and sour cream and stir to mix.
  5. Do not add the full 1/3 cup of milk. Add just enough milk to the measuring cup to reach the 1 cup mark. Stir until well combined.
  6. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir. Don't overmix.
  7. Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
  8. Divide the batter into 8 muffin cups, filling them 2/3 full. If you like, sprinkle some sparkling sugar on top of the muffins before baking.
  9. Air fry at 400 degrees F for 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to 325 degrees F and bake for another 11-13 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • Either use silicone muffin cups or find a small muffin pan that will fit in the air fryer.
  • If you like, add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the muffins. This gives a little flavor boost, especially if you use frozen blueberries.
  • Coat the blueberries with the dry ingredients, so they don't all sink to the bottom of the muffins. This is even more important if you are baking with frozen blueberries.
  • Don't add too much liquid to the muffins. You might not need all the milk called for in the recipe.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter.
  • Sparkling sugar on top of the muffins makes them look amazing.
