Simple recipe for moist muffins with blueberries and lemon flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, milk, vegetable oil, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them before adding to the batter.
- For a stronger lemon flavor, add a simple lemon glaze after cooling.
