Description

These moist, fluffy blueberry muffins are packed with juicy berries and come together in just 30 minutes. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a quick snack, this easy recipe works beautifully with fresh or frozen blueberries and requires no mixer.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (195g) all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) milk or non-dairy milk
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 6 to 8 ounces fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon sugar for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners and lightly grease the top of the tin.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a measuring jug, mix the oil and egg, then add milk until it reaches the 1-cup line. Add vanilla and whisk.
  4. Combine the wet and dry ingredients. Stir gently until just mixed. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the blueberries.
  6. Divide batter evenly in muffin cups. Sprinkle sugar on top of each muffin.
  7. Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean or with crumbs.
  8. Cool for a few minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Use frozen blueberries without thawing to prevent color bleeding.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep muffins light and fluffy.
  • Store at room temperature for 3 days or freeze up to 3 months.
  • To make vegan, replace egg with flax egg and use plant-based milk.
  • For mini muffins, bake 9–11 minutes.
