Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup (180ml) whole milk (or dairy-free milk)
  • 1/3 cup (75g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
  • 1 cup (150g) fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. Add the egg, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and lemon zest (if using). Stir gently with a whisk or fork until just combined; the batter should be a bit lumpy.
  4. Carefully fold in the blueberries using a spatula or large spoon to keep them intact.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Optionally, sprinkle a pinch of sugar on top.
  6. Bake for 18-22 minutes, checking doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Let muffins rest in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep muffins tender and fluffy. Use room temperature eggs and milk for best results. Fold blueberries gently to avoid breaking them. Toss blueberries in flour before folding to prevent sinking. Let muffins cool on a wire rack to avoid soggy bottoms. For vegan or gluten-free versions, substitute ingredients as noted.
