Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.75 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 0.25 tsp baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp fine salt
  • 0.75 cup buttermilk Shake well before measuring
  • 0.33 cup neutral oil such as canola or vegetable
  • 1 large egg at room temperature
  • 1.5 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp lemon zest finely grated
  • 1.5 cup fresh blueberries frozen work too; do not thaw
  • 1 tsp all-purpose flour optional, for tossing berries
  • 1 tbsp coarse sugar for a crunchy top

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin and lightly mist the liners.
  • Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and lemon zest in a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk buttermilk, oil, egg, and vanilla until smooth.
  • Make a well in the dry ingredients. Pour in the wet and stir just until a few dry streaks remain.
  • Toss blueberries with a teaspoon of flour if using. Fold berries into the batter gently.
  • Scoop batter into cups, nearly to the top. Sprinkle each with coarse sugar.
  • Bake 16–19 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out clean or with moist crumbs.
  • Cool 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer muffins to a rack. Serve warm or at room temp.

Notes

Variation: Add a lemon glaze by whisking 1/2 cup powdered sugar with 1–2 tsp lemon juice and drizzle over cooled muffins. For extra crunch, swap coarse sugar for a quick streusel. Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or freeze up to 2 months.
