  • Gently stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
  • Fill your muffin tin liners about ¼ full with the batter.
  • Mix fresh blueberries into the rest of the batter and gently combine. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Fill the liner to about ¾ of the way full.
  • Bake at 425° F for 5 minutes. (220° C)

Notes

  • You will know when your muffins are done when the tops are golden brown and you can put a toothpick in and it comes out clean. 
  • If you want to use frozen blueberries, thaw your berries and drain them for about 30 minutes. Pat them dry with a paper towel and then add them to your batter.
