These melt-in-your-mouth blueberry muffins are a delightful treat for breakfast or snack time. Made with a tender and moist batter, bursting with juicy blueberries, these muffins are sure to impress. The secret to their melt-in-your-mouth texture is a combination of butter and buttermilk. Serve these muffins warm with a pat of butter for an indulgent treat.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to overmix.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
