Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract.
  4. Add the lemon zest and lemon juice to the wet ingredients and stir.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the blueberries.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For an extra lemony flavor, you can sprinkle a little extra granulated sugar on top of the batter before baking.
  • If you don’t have fresh blueberries, frozen blueberries can be used. Just don’t thaw them before adding to the batter.
  • Ensure your oven is preheated properly for even baking.
