Ingredients
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup of granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/3 cup of vegetable oil
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1/3 cup of milk
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 cup of fresh blueberries (can substitute for frozen, but do not thaw)
- Confectioners’ sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 392°F. Prepare a muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, combine the oil, beaten egg, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ones, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
- Evenly distribute the batter among the muffin cups, filling each to about ¾ full.
- Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Allow cooling in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with confectioners’ sugar before serving, if desired.
Tips & Tricks
- Do not overmix the batter; it can make the muffins dense.
- If using frozen blueberries, add them to the batter without thawing to prevent excess moisture.
- For an extra touch, add lemon zest to the batter to enhance the blueberry flavor.
