Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a muffin tin with 12 paper liners. Lightly spray the inside of the paper liners with cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the butter. Heat until the butter is just melted (either in a microwave or double boiler on the stove top).
- Add the granulated sugar and oil to the melted butter. Whisk together.
- Add 1/2 cup of blueberries to the bowl. Use the back of a fork to mash the berries and release some of their blueberry juice.
- Add the buttermilk, eggs, vanilla, lemon zest, and salt to the bowl. Whisk until the eggs are completely incorporated in the liquid.
- Add the baking powder and baking soda. Whisk to incorporate.
- Add the flour and remaining 1 1/2 cups of blueberries. Gently stir/fold the batter just until no dry flour remains (batter will be thick & a little lumpy).
- Divide the batter between the 12 muffin cups (the muffin liners will be completely full & mounded in the center). Sprinkle each muffin with 1 teaspoon of turbinado sugar.
- Bake on a center oven rack for 25-27 minutes. Cook until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out with moist crumbs or blueberries, but no raw batter. Cool for 10 minutes in the muffin pan. Then, remove the muffins to cool on a wire rack until ready to serve warm or room temperature.
