Blueberry muffins are a delightful breakfast treat or a satisfying snack. This classic recipe produces muffins that are moist, fluffy, and packed with blueberries. Using simple ingredients and easy steps, you can whip up a batch of these delicious muffins in no time.
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, or lightly grease the tin.
- In a large bowl, combine the self-raising flour and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, olive oil, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.
- Gently fold in the blueberries with a spatula, taking care not to crush them.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
- 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.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy your classic blueberry muffins warm or at room temperature. They can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Tips:
- Ensure all your ingredients are at room temperature before mixing. This helps in achieving a smooth batter and even baking.
- To prevent the blueberries from sinking to the bottom, toss them in a bit of flour before folding them into the batter.
- Avoid overmixing the batter; mix just until all ingredients are combined to ensure the muffins remain light and fluffy.
- Using self-raising flour reduces the need for additional leavening agents, making your prep time quicker and easier.
