Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 3 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups Fresh blueberries
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (to toss blueberries)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease each cup.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the granulated sugar and melted butter together until well combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) into the wet mixture. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be thick.

Step 6

In a small bowl, toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the muffins.

Step 7

Gently fold the blueberries into the batter using a spatula, being careful not to crush them.

Step 8

Evenly divide the batter between the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 10

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Enjoy your fresh Lemon Blueberry Muffins with a cup of coffee or tea!
