Tips for best results
- Use room-temperature butter for easier blending with sugar and a smoother texture.
- Gently fold in the blueberries to prevent excess moisture and ensure even distribution.
- For moist muffins, avoid overmixing the batter. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
- Sprinkling turbinado or coarse sparkling sugar on top creates crunchy muffin tops, adding an extra layer of texture and sweetness.
- To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin. It should come out clean or with a few crumbs clinging to it.
- Cool the muffins slightly before removing them from the pan to prevent them from falling apart.
- Be sure to mix the wet ingredients first before adding the dry ingredients.
Substitutions and Variations
- If you do not have buttermilk, you can make your own with whole milk and vinegar.
- Swap out all-purpose flour for a gluten-free alternative, you may just need to add a bit more liquid.
- Experiment with other fruits such as raspberries, blackberries, or diced strawberries for delicious variations.
- Add a streusel topping made with brown sugar, flour, and melted butter for an extra indulgent touch.
- Enhance the flavor by adding a teaspoon of lemon zest or a tablespoon of lemon juice to the batter.
- Create mini muffins by using a standard muffin pan and reducing the baking time accordingly.
FAQs about This Recipe
Yes, you can use either fresh or frozen blueberries. If using frozen, do not thaw them before adding them to the batter.
Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, wrap each muffin individually with plastic wrap and freeze. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before enjoying.
Absolutely! You can use a standard muffin pan to create regular-sized muffins. Adjust the baking time accordingly, reducing it by approximately 5-10 minutes.
