THE BEST BLUEBERRY MUFFINS



The Best Blueberry Muffins image

The problem with most blueberry muffins is there are never enough blueberries. But for the batter to support the weight and moisture of the berries, it needs to have an airier texture than most dump-and-stir muffin recipes. So, we creamed the butter for that extra lift and to prevent the blueberries from making the batter gummy. We also added buttermilk and sour cream for richness and tang and to help tenderize the crumb. Lemon zest adds brightness and sprinkling raw sugar before baking give a nice crunch to the muffin tops.

Time 1h15m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 cups fresh blueberries
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 teaspoons kosher salt
Nonstick cooking spray
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1 large egg
2 large egg yolks
3 tablespoons raw sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk together 2 1/2 cups of the flour and the baking powder in a medium bowl until completely combined. Toss 1 1/2 cups of the blueberries with the remaining 2 tablespoons flour in a medium bowl until completely coated. Whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, vanilla and salt in a large measuring cup until smooth.
  • Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Spray the top of a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray and line with standard cupcake liners. (It's important to spray the top of the pan because the muffin tops will stick to the pan if you don't.)
  • Beat the butter, granulated sugar and lemon zest with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, occasionally scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the egg and yolks and continue beating until fully incorporated, about 2 minutes.
  • With the mixer on low, add the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with the wet ingredients in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed (be careful not to overmix).
  • Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups with a heaping 1/3 cup per muffin. Top the batter with the remaining 1/2 cup blueberries, gently pressing to adhere (you should have 4 to 5 berries per muffin). Sprinkle with the raw sugar.
  • Bake the muffins, rotating the pan halfway through, until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then remove the muffins onto the wire rack to cool completely.

TO DIE FOR BLUEBERRY MUFFINS

These muffins are extra large and yummy with the sugary-cinnamon crumb topping. I usually double the recipe and fill the muffin cups just to the top edge for a wonderful extra-generously-sized deli style muffin. Add extra blueberries too, if you want!

Time 40m

Yield 9-12 muffins, 9-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, sifted
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line muffin pan with paper liners.
  • In medium bowl, blend together butter, sugar, eggs, milk, and vanilla.
  • In large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Pour butter mixture into dry ingredients and mix well.
  • Fold blueberries into mixture carefully berries aren't crushed.
  • Spoon muffin mix into paper liners.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes depending on how full the liners are, I like to overfill a little because the top of the muffin is my favorite part but it may take a little longer to cook depending on the oven.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen blueberries: Fresh blueberries are ideal for this recipe, but frozen blueberries can also be used. If using frozen blueberries, thaw them before adding them to the batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough muffins. Mix the batter until just combined.
  • Use muffin liners: Muffin liners will help the muffins to bake evenly and prevent them from sticking to the muffin tin.
  • Fill the muffin cups to the top: This will ensure that the muffins are nice and fluffy.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: This will help the muffins to rise quickly and evenly.
  • Let the muffins cool before serving: This will allow the muffins to set and firm up.

Conclusion:

These blueberry muffins are the perfect breakfast treat or afternoon snack. They are moist, fluffy, and packed with blueberries. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect blueberry muffins every time.
