Ingredients 

  • 2 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups blueberries fresh or frozen
  • zest from 1 lemon
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup oil vegetable or canola
  • 3/4 cup + 2 tbsp buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp turbinado sugar

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a muffin tin with 12 muffin cups and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, blueberries, and lemon zest.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the sugar, eggs, vanilla, oil, and buttermilk.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the wet, mixing until just combined. Be sure not to overmix the batter. Having a few lumps or streaks of flour in the batter is okay!
  • Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling a little more than ¾ full. Sprinkle each muffin top with turbinado sugar.
  • Bake for 5 minutes at 450°F. Without opening your oven door, reduce the oven temperature to 375°F and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out with just a couple of crumbs.
  • Remove from oven and allow muffins to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
