The Best Blueberry Muffins

Submitted by Lvs2Cook

"I got this recipe years ago and make it several times during blueberry season. The flavor is very fresh."

 

• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 10
• Yields: 12 muffins

ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup butter, room temperature
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1⁄4 - 1⁄2 teaspoon salt (I use 1/4 tsp)
• 2 1⁄2 cups blueberries, mash 1/2 cup with a fork
• 2 cups flour
• 1⁄2 cup milk
• 1 tablespoon sugar

directions

1. Heat oven to 375º. Grease 12 regular muffin cups, including the area between each cup. I grease my cupcake liners too.
2. In a medium bowl, beat butter until creamy. Beat in the sugar until pale and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Beat in vanilla, baking powder, and salt.
3. Mix mashed berries into batter.
4. Fold in half the flour with a spatula, then half the milk. Add the remaining flour and milk. Fold in remaining blueberries.
5. Scoop batter into muffin cups. Sprinkle with sugar.
6. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Let muffins cool at least 30 minutes in the pan before removing.

My husband said these were the "best Blueberry muffins ever!" I also made some in a mini-miffin pan that were gone in minutes. Froze and re=heated well, also.

Great muffins! I used 2/3 cup Splenda, 1/3 cup sugar and l cup whole wheat pastry flour and 1 cup all-purpose flour. I left the berries whole and used egg-beaters as I was out of eggs. They came out high, soft and delicious. I sprinkles the tops with sugar and nutmeg, just to get if a little crust and a little spice. Thanks, Carole in Orlando
