The best, delicious, nostalgic, summery blueberry muffins in the biz.

Time

  • Prep: 15 minutes
  • Cook: 30 minutes
  • Total: 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 stick of unsalted butter (1/2 cup), softened
  • ¾ cup white sugar + extra for sprinkling
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ tsp (ish) lemon zest – I do about ¼ of the lemon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup buttermilk (can sub milk but buttermilk is best here)
  • 2 full cups of blueberries, washed, dried and picked over for stems

Recipe

  1. Preheat oven to 375.
  2. Cream butter and sugars. Add in the eggs one at a time, then add the lemon zest and vanilla.
  3. Sift together the dry ingredients (flour/ baking powder / salt). Add to the creamed mixture in thirds alternating with the buttermilk.
  4. Using a fork, press down a few times on the blueberries mashing just a handful of them. Fold them into the batter.
  5. Line your muffin tin with parchment paper or cupcake liners and fill with batter. Sprinkle each muffin with a little bit of sugar – about ¼ tsp each but just eyeball it.
  6. Bake at 375 for 25-35 minutes or the tops are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
