Homemade Blueberry Muffins

Nothing like fresh warm Blueberry Muffins right out of the oven!  There are so many yummy summer fruits this time of year and blueberries are always a favorite!  Blueberry picking is not an option where I live in the desert, but I still love stocking up from the store while they are cheaper in the summer.  So what to make with all those blueberries??….Homemade Blueberry Muffins!! 

These are so delicious bursting with blueberries and sugar sprinkled on top!  They definitely don’t stick around for very long!  Not only are these perfect to make in the summer, they have also become an often requested birthday breakfast item. Serve them with some eggs and bacon and you have a yummy breakfast.  They are also perfect for a light summer dessert, add to a school lunch, or snack anytime!

So to start preheat your oven to 350 degrees.  Spray your muffin tins with non-stick cooking spray or line cups with paper liners.  Put your blueberries in a bowl and sprinkle 1/4 cup flour over your blueberries.  Stir to coat the berries thoroughly and set aside. 

In a small bowl whisk together your flour, baking powder and salt.  

In the bowl of your mixer with the whisk attachment cream your butter and then gradually mix in the sugar.  Add in your vanilla and eggs and continue mixing until it is all combined.  Whisk in milk alternately with the flour mixture, mixing well after each addition.  

Remove the bowl from the mixer and dump in your blueberries.  

With a spatula  gently fold in the blueberries.  

Fill your muffin cups about 2/3 full with batter.  Then take some additional sugar and sprinkle over the tops of each muffin cup.  

Bake for about 20-22 minutes until they are slightly golden brown.  

Let cool in the pan for about 15-20 minutes and then remove to a cooling rack or just start eating! 

I hope you all enjoy them as much as we do!
