Blueberry muffins

Blueberry muffins are a classic and delicious treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, as a snack, or even as a dessert. These muffins are packed with juicy blueberries and have a rich and tender crumb thanks to a perfect blend of ingredients including butter, brown sugar, and self-raising flour. Follow these easy steps to bake a batch of homemade blueberry muffins that are sure to impress.

Ingredients:

1/4 cup self-raising flour
36g
1/3 cup butter
70g
1/2 cup brown sugar
120g
1 cup blueberries
150g
1 cup milk (1% fat)
240g
2 eggs
100g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, sift together the self-raising flour.
3. Cream the Butter and Sugar: In another bowl, beat the softened butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy. This can be done using an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes.
4. Add the Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time to the butter and sugar mixture, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated.
5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
6. Add Milk: Stir in the milk gently until the batter is smooth.
7. Fold in Blueberries: Carefully fold in the blueberries, being cautious not to crush them. This will keep the batter light and blueberry-filled.
8. Fill Muffin Tins: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling each cup about two-thirds full to allow room for the muffins to rise.
9. Bake the Muffins: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
10. Cool and Serve: Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:

- Use fresh or frozen blueberries.: Both fresh and frozen blueberries work well in this recipe. If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them before adding to the batter to prevent them from getting too mushy.

- Do not overmix the batter.: When combining the wet and dry ingredients, mix just until they are incorporated. Overmixing can cause the muffins to become dense and tough.

- Toss blueberries in flour.: Before adding blueberries to the batter, gently toss them in a small amount of flour. This helps prevent the blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the muffins during baking.

- Use room temperature ingredients.: Ensure that your butter, eggs, and milk are at room temperature before mixing. This helps create a smoother batter and more evenly baked muffins.

- Fill muffin tin appropriately.: Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with batter to allow the muffins to rise properly and prevent overflow while baking.

In just a few simple steps, you will have a batch of mouth-watering blueberry muffins that are perfect for any occasion. Enjoy them fresh out of the oven or store them for later use. These muffins are sure to become a family favorite!
