You can make blueberry muffins from a box, but you can’t really call it baking. And with a recipe as easy and delicious as this one, why would you bother?
You Will Need
- A muffin tin
- 2 large mixing bowls
- A mixing spoon
- 2 c. flour
- 1/4-1/2 c. of sugar, depending on how sweet your berries are
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 3 tsp. baking powder
- An egg
- 1 c. whole milk
- 3 tbsp. butter, plus extra for greasing the tin
- 1 tbsp. grated lemon zest
- 1 c. fresh or frozen blueberries
- And a wooden toothpick
- Muffin or cupcake liners
Step 1: Preheat oven
Preheat the oven to 400 F and butter the muffin tin.
If you have muffin liners lying around, they make clean up much easier. Place liners in buttered muffin tins.
Step 2: Mix dry ingredients
With a whisk mix together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl.
Step 3: Whisk wet ingredients
In another bowl, whisk the egg, milk, and melted butter together and add the lemon zest to this mixture.
Step 4: Mix
Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Mix until just combined by folding the ingredients together with a mixing spoon. The batter will be lumpy and thick.
Step 5: Add berries
Add the blueberries to the batter and gently fold them in.
If you’re using frozen berries, don’t let them defrost or you’ll have purple muffins.
Step 6: Spoon batter into tins
Spoon the batter into the muffin tin filling each compartment about 1/2 to 2/3 full.
Step 7: Bake
Bake the muffins for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Step 8: Cool
Cool for 10 minutes. For best results, serve warm.
Blueberries are one of the few native fruits of North America, and Native Americans used berries as food, their leaves as medicinal tea, and the juice as both a health tonic and cloth dye.
