Ingredients

1 1/2 cups plain flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup butter, melted

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1/2 cup milk

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)

1 1/4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries (do not thaw if frozen)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.

  • In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

  • In another bowl, whisk melted butter, oil, milk, eggs, vanilla, and almond extract.

  • Pour wet mixture into dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.

  • Fold in the blueberries carefully.

  • Divide batter evenly into muffin cups (fill about 3/4 full).

  • Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

  • Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For added flavor, mix in 1 tsp lemon zest.

  • Add a streusel topping for crunch.

  • For dairy-free muffins, substitute milk with plant-based alternatives and use coconut oil instead of butter.

  • Toss blueberries in flour before folding in to prevent sinking.

  • Muffins can be frozen for up to 3 months.
