  3. Add in the egg and vanilla. Mix until combined.
  4. In a small bowl, toss the blueberries with 1/4 cup of flour.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together the remaining flour, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Add the flour mixture to the batter in small additions, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
  7. Fold in the blueberries.
  8. Distribute the batter evenly among the muffin cups. Bake for 18-22 minutes, until the muffin tops are lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before removing.

  • The batter might seem thicker than for other muffin recipes, but that’s exactly how it should be for this recipe!
  • The muffins themselves are quite soft and moist. Feel free to bake them a bit longer if you prefer a slightly firmer texture!
