Ingredients

For the Muffins:

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (plus extra for topping)

Preparation Steps : How to Make Blueberry Muffins Recipe

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

• Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.

Step 2: Prepare the Wet Ingredients

• In a large bowl, whisk together egg, milk, oil, and vanilla extract.

Step 3: Mix the Dry Ingredients

• In a separate bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 4: Combine the Wet and Dry Ingredients

• Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be lumpy.
• Fold in the blueberries carefully to avoid crushing them.

Step 5: Bake the Muffins

• Spoon the batter into the muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
• Top each muffin with a few extra blueberries.
• Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 6: Serve

• Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Pro Tips

• For extra moisture, you can add sour cream or yogurt to the batter.
• If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them before adding to the batter to prevent the muffins from turning blue.
