Jordan'S Blueberry Muffins
Sweet and moist blueberry muffins with tender crumb, bursting with fresh or frozen blueberries, perfect for breakfast, snacks, or brunch gatherings.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix together flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder in a bowl.
- Add beaten eggs, milk, and vegetable oil to the dry ingredients and stir just enough to combine; batter may be lumpy.
- Shake blueberries in 1 tablespoon of flour to coat, then fold blueberries into the batter.
- Fill greased or paper-lined muffin tins with the batter and sprinkle with a little sugar.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30 to 35 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter texture, be careful not to overmix the batter; it's okay if it's lumpy. You can substitute half of the oil with unsweetened applesauce for a healthier option. If fresh blueberries aren't available, frozen ones work well too; just fold them in without thawing. Consider adding a sprinkle of lemon zest for a bright flavor.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these muffins warm with a pat of butter or alongside a cup of tea or coffee for breakfast. They pair beautifully with a fresh fruit salad or yogurt for a balanced meal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of flour?
Yes, you can substitute whole wheat flour for half of the all-purpose flour for a nuttier flavor and added nutrition. Just note that this may change the texture slightly, making the muffins denser.
How can I adjust the sweetness of the muffins?
You can reduce the sugar by up to 1/4 cup if you prefer less sweetness, especially if using sweet blueberries. Alternatively, consider adding a few tablespoons of honey or maple syrup for a natural sweetener option.
What can I add to the batter for extra flavor?
Consider folding in a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a teaspoon of almond extract for a fragrant twist. You can also add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for warmth, or even a handful of chopped nuts for added crunch.
