Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. In a small bowl, toss the blueberries with 2 tablespoons of flour to prevent sinking.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
- Alternate adding the dry ingredients and milk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Gently fold in the flour-coated blueberries.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling them almost to the top. If using streusel topping, combine the ingredients with your fingers until crumbly and sprinkle over each muffin.
- Bake at 425°F for 5 minutes, then reduce temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 15-18 minutes more, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Start with a hot oven (425°F) for initial rise, then lower to 375°F. Do not overmix batter; lumps are okay. Coat blueberries in flour to prevent sinking. Fill muffin cups nearly to the top for tall domes. Fresh blueberries work best; if using frozen, do not thaw and coat with extra flour.
