Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ½ cups (310g) all-purpose flour
- 2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
- ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups (225g) fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons coarse sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 6-cup jumbo muffin tin well or line with jumbo muffin liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar until combined and lumps are broken.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together with a spatula. Stop folding as soon as the batter comes together and a few streaks of flour remain.
- Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, being careful not to break them.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
- Sprinkle the coarse sugar evenly over the tops of the muffins.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If muffins brown too quickly, tent loosely with foil halfway through baking.
- Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Notes
Do not overmix the batter to keep muffins tender. Use room temperature eggs and milk for smooth blending. If using frozen blueberries, add them directly from the freezer without thawing. Grease the pan well or use liners to prevent sticking. Tent muffins with foil if browning too fast.
