How to make the best Blueberry Muffins Recipe:

  • Preheat oven to 400º F (Makes 12 regular size muffins)
  • In a large bowl whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. (These are my favorite silicone wisks)
  • Use a measuring cup (I use a glass measuring cup) that holds at least 1 cup and add vegetable oil, egg and then fill the cup to the 1-cup line with milk (about 1/3 to a 1/2 cup of milk).
  • Add vanilla and whisk until combined.
  • Add milk mixture to the bowl with flour and sugar then use a fork to combine. Do not over mix. (The muffin batter will be pretty thick).
  • Add blueberries (I like to freeze my blueberries first so they don’t fall apart when I mix them. You can just buy frozen if you want too) and use a spatula or spoon to gently fold the blueberries into the muffin batter.
  • Divide the batter between the muffin cups filling about ½ full using your ice cream scoop. I have these at ome and I use the biggest one to help filling up the muffin cups easier. (The 3 pack is on sale!)
  • Sprinkle a little sugar on top of each muffin.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes

Enjoy!

How to freeze blueberry muffins:

This recipe freezes great! I suggest that you bake them as directed. Allow them to cool and then place them in a freezer bag to freeze. These will stay good for up to 6 months but they never last that long in my house. You can then pull just one or 2 out if you want and reheat them in the microwave for a delicious and easy breakfast idea.

Money saving tip:

Buy blueberries when they are in season. Blueberries will be their tastiest and their cheapest around August. Buy them at their lowest price and then freeze them to save money. Then use those frozen blueberries to make this easy blueberry muffin recipe. Make sure you download and print our What’s in Season?

  1. This was a wonderful recipe. Easy to make. I was worried about the 400 degree temp but I used a very large muffin tin which only made 6 but they turned out wonderfully and baked 20 mins. They taste lovely. Thank you for my nice blueberry muffins!

  2. I just made these a few minutes age I doubled to 36 the recipe and I added lemon extract and vanilla bean paste. They came out beautiful but I am going to add some lemon ? liequer with a little powdered sugar for glaze. The last batch are in the oven. I am a pastry chef ???

  5. Great recipe! My daughter is sick, so this was a delicious breakfast treat for her this morning that helped cheer her up! My son won’t eat blueberries, so since the first batch was so tasty I made a second batch with chocolate chips instead of blueberries. Can’t wait to try those, too! Thanks so much!

  6. Delicious they came out just right! I’m terrible at baking I can’t believe how easy and delicious they were. I actually have more confidence to try baking again thanks!

  8. I made my first batch during the holidays a few weeks ago and my family loves them! I have made them 3 more times since then. I add some cinnamon and nutmeg for a nice little kick. This recipe is very easy and very delicious!

  13. Just made these muffins this evening. I used fresh blueberries. Came out great. I will print this receipe and add it to my folder??

  14. These are the most amazing blueberry muffins I’ve ever had. I love blueberry muffins and have been looking for a good recipe for years. Was headed up north with family and friends and wanted to make blueberry muffins for everyone before they went skiing. Everyone is raving about these muffins! Thanks for sharing!!! This will be my go to recipe!

  15. Hi! I’ve made these a few times and I love them! So easy and so good! My three year old helps me make them and it’s a awesome ?? and yummy! Since I’d love to make these more often, any ideas on substituting applesauce for the sugar? Or just some nutritional info? Also, i used some frozen berry mix with blueberries, cherries and strawberries! It was amazing although not as beautiful looking as just blueberries. Thanks for sharing!

  16. Love this recipe! It is my husband’s new favorite. The muffins come out moist and delicious every time. Thanks for sharing!

  17. Omg this recipient is amazing
    Hubby loved these muffins
    I also made raspberry one too ?

  18. I tried the recipe and followed the method but I must have made some mistake along the way.. it turned out dry..

  19. There were awesome! I just made these and they are great. My husband loved them. The batter is so good. You could make them with bananas for banana bread muffins. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

  21. We just made these using fresh blueberries we picked from a local farm. They are amazing!

  22. These were good but next time I think I’ll use a whole cup of sugar instead to make them a bit sweeter 😉

  23. Just made these tonight and they are delicious!!! I’ve never made homemade muffins but they were easy and yummy! I had to eat one while they were still hot!

  27. Made these with my 3 year old and LOVED them! So easy! I used gluten free flour so I added just a tad more vegetable oil since gf flour tends to be a little cakier sometimes and it was perfect. Will definitely be making these again!

  29. Had some blueberries to use. Saw this recipe and thought is was too good to be true… But they turned out FANTASTIC!! Moist, full of flavor and pretty too! Thank you!

  30. Make it this morning as I have fresh blue berry in my fridge. Taste delicious and moist. Easy to make.
    Made 9 large muffins.
    Thank you for sharing.

  33. These blueberry muffins are wonderful..devine according to my 18 year old grandson. AND, they are so easy to bake. I just found the recipe a few weeks ago and have made them 3 times. I just made a batch for Christmas morning. I found 6oz pkg of bluberries for a dollar each so I bought six for the feeezer! YAY!

  34. I’ve made these several times and they have been a hit each time with family and house guests. As someone else commented, you can make larger muffins if you’re ok with a smaller number. Dusting the blueberries with flour prevents them from sinking. And I find no one minds if a few blueberries break while being folded into the batter. They still look and taste great!

  35. I just made these on the weekend and they turned out great! I plan on making these often, the recipe was super easy! I want to try with frozen blueberries next time because they’re easy to always have on hand that way. I also want to try them with chocolate chips! YUM! Thanks for sharing this recipe!

  39. This is now my only go to muffin recipe!!! So easy and sooooo good. I followed the directions EXACTLY and they came out beautiful just like your pictures. They are light & fluffy and keep well. Everyone LOVES them.

  49. Thanks for sharing Mikki! I’m glad that your kids and you both enjoyed this recipe!

  50. I just made these this morning, and OMG!!! They are freaking delicious!! Super easy to make and my husband and my picky daughter, who doesn’t like blueberries, loved them as well…I saved the recipe and will be making these again?

  52. I made these last night and they were amazing. I omitted the eggs as I am vegetarian and added 1tsp cinnamon powder and used about 3/4 cup milk. It was absolutely yummy and very easy.

  54. I followed the recipe, and the muffins turned out perfect. My family loved them. This was nearly as easy as a box mix but MUCH better! This will be a regular weekend go to!

  56. How many mini muffins would this make?
    How should I alter bake time/temp for mini muffins?

  57. I haven’t tried it yet, but I think it would make approximately 24 mini muffins. I would reduce the oven temperature to 350 and cook for 15-17 minutes. Thank you!

  64. We did minis! Turned out amazing! We used blueberries that we picked the day before! I did 325* for about 17 minutes and they were perfect!

  66. These are the easiest and best tasting muffins out there. Even I can make them. Everyone loves them.
