Follow the simple instructions and ingredients below, and you’ll have ended up with amazing blueberry muffins!
Best of all? They’re super easy to make!
As far as ingredients go, you don’t need much to make delicious homemade blueberry muffins!
You’ll want a few separate bowls for different dry ingredients, but you can totally do it all in one if you’d prefer!
If you prefer your muffins a little on the drier side (not a bad thing by any means!) you can adjust the vegetable oil slightly.
Some quick and easy measuring, pouring, and mixing and you’re ready!
Now, onto the ingredients!
As with most baked goods, the most important ingredient is the flour!
For the other dry ingredients, you’ll want granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
The wet ingredients are fairly simple as well, with an egg, some milk, and vegetable oil.
Unsurprisingly, you do want some fresh or frozen blueberries (thawed), these are blueberry muffins after all!
Check below for the exact measurements and ingredient list!
Ingredients
- 1 Egg
- ¾ Cup Milk
- ½ Cup Vegetable Oil
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1/3 Cup Granulated Sugar
- 3 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 Cup Blueberries, Fresh or Frozen (Thawed)
Baking
Now it’s onto the fun stuff, actually making the muffins!
Before you start mixing, you’re going to want to preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
Then, line a muffin tin with paper or reusable liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together your wet ingredients.
When the egg, milk, and vegetable oil are whisked together, gradually add in the flour, baking powder, and salt!
Try our Blueberry Crumble Bars!
Once all of the ingredients are thoroughly combined and look like a batter, lightly fold in the blueberries.
You want to be careful not to pop any of them, though some of them will obviously burst while baking.
When you’re done, you’re ready to start pouring!
Now it’s time to actually start forming the muffins!
Spoon the prepared muffin batter into the muffin tins until they’re about halfway to three-quarters full.
Once you’re done filling them, it’s time to finally start baking.
Lightly dust the muffins with sugar and bake for 20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
If you’d prefer, you can use some larger grain sugar for a little added texture to the tops of the muffins.
We used standard granulated sugar to simplify the ingredient list for this recipe, however.
When done, remove from the pan immediately and allow it to cool.
Serve them on their own or with soft butter.
You can also grill them super easily in a pan for an amazing, incredibly delicious (if slightly unhealthy) breakfast!
However you eat them, these muffins are so worth it!
Now that you’re done baking, all that’s left to do is enjoy!
This recipe makes a dozen muffins, but you can obviously make as many as you need by simply adjusting the ingredients!
Don’t worry if they come out a little off the first time, you have plenty of time to practice and perfect these homemade blueberry muffins!
