Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup sugar
- 2.5 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1.5 cups fresh blueberries
Instructions
- 1
Set the oven to 400°F and wait until the indicator light or beep tells you it has finished heating, about 10 minutes.
- 2
Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper muffin liners, pushing each liner gently into place so it sits flat inside each cup.
- 3
Pour 2 cups flour, 0.75 cup sugar, 2.5 teaspoons baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoon salt into a medium bowl.
- 4
Whisk these dry ingredients together until uniform in color, about 15 seconds.
- 5
Crack 2 eggs into a separate medium bowl, then pour in 1 cup milk and 4 tablespoons melted butter.
- 6
Whisk the wet ingredients together until the mixture is uniform and smooth, about 20 seconds.
- 7
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with dry ingredients, then stir with a rubber spatula until just combined and no white flour streaks remain; do not overmix.
- 8
Add 1.5 cups blueberries to the batter and fold them in gently using the spatula with 5–6 lifting motions; some berries will break slightly, which is fine.
- 9
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 lined cups, filling each about three-quarters full using a spoon or ice-cream scoop.
- 10
Place the muffin tin in the preheated 400°F oven and bake until the tops are deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs, 18–22 minutes.
- 11
Remove the muffin tin from the oven using oven mitts and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes.
- 12
Lift each muffin out of the tin by gently pulling the paper liner and place on a wire rack or plate to cool further before serving.
