Ingredients
Scale
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1 cup milk
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For an extra burst of flavor, you can toss the blueberries with a tablespoon of flour before adding them to the batter. This helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom.
If you don’t have fresh blueberries, frozen ones work too, but don’t thaw them before adding to the batter.
For a beautiful golden top, you can sprinkle a little extra sugar on top of each muffin before baking.
