Ingredients

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2/3 cup sour cream or plain yogurt

2 large eggs

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  • In a separate bowl, combine the sour cream (or yogurt), eggs, oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.

  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined—do not overmix.

  • Gently fold in the blueberries, saving a few to place on top of the muffins.

  • Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Top with the reserved blueberries.

  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  • Cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a lemon twist, add the zest of one lemon to the batter.

  • Substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a nuttier flavor.

  • To make the recipe vegan, use flax eggs, dairy-free yogurt, and oil.

  • For a chocolatey variation, add 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips.

  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to 1 week.
