Let’s get started with these Easy Blueberry Muffins!

Ingredients you need:

(Makes 12 regular size muffins)

• 1 1/2 cups (all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar, plus 1 tablespoon for muffin tops
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1 large egg
• 1/3 – 1/2 cup milk
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 6 to 8 ounces fresh or frozen blueberries (about 1 cup frozen blueberries)

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?
