Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 egg
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 1/2 cups blueberries fresh
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a muffin tin with paper liners. Lightly grease paper liners with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to cream together butter and sugar, about two minutes.
- Beat in eggs until combined. Add in the baking powder, salt, and vanilla and mix briefly.
- Add in half of flour, mix with hand mixer until just combined, then add in half of the milk. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl and add in the remaining flour and milk, mixing in between additions.
- Add the blueberries to the batter and use a rubber spatula to gently fold them in.
- Divide the batter up amongst the 12 muffins. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of sugar atop each muffin.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let muffins cool for 5 minutes in the pan before removing them and transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- When using frozen blueberries, rinse to thaw and pat them completely dry before folding into the batter to avoid excess moisture.
- Grease paper liners lightly with nonstick spray to help muffins release easily after baking.
- Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
