Ingredients
- 1¼ cups sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, divided
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup milk
- 2 cups blueberries, rinsed, drained and dried
- ⅛ cup coarse sprinkling sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Prepare two 12-cup muffin tins by adding paper liners. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, beat sugar and butter with a hand mixer until well combined. Add eggs one at a time, blending in between additions. Mix in vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, sift together 2 cups flour, the baking powder, and salt. Add to butter/sugar mixture a little bit at a time, alternating with the milk, using a wooden spoon and making sure not to overmix.
- Using a fork, crush ½ cup of the blueberries and fold into the batter. Toss remaining blueberries in remaining 1 tablespoon flour. Fold these coated blueberries into the batter.
- Divide batter among the wells of the prepared muffin tin. You wil not need to fill all the wells in the second tin: add a few tablespoons of water to each empty well to ensure even baking. Sprinkle coarse sugar over the tops and bake for about 20-24 minutes.
- Remove from muffin tin and allow to cool at least 30 minutes.
Notes
Make ahead of time. Place in a large resealable plastic bag and store at room temperature for 3–4 days or in the refrigerator for 7 days. These muffins also freeze well. Place muffins in a single layer in a resealable plastic freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months.
Sinking Blueberries: Tossing the berries in flour before adding them to the mixture should keep them from sinking to the bottom. You can also try adding 1 tablespoon of plain batter to each muffin liner before folding the blueberries into the remaining batter. Finish filling in the muffin tins and bake.
Optional Crumb Topping: Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, 1/2 cup sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon in a bowl. Mix with a fork and sprinkle over the muffins. Bake as directed above.
TO MAKE BLUEBERRY BREAD:
Pour batter into a parchment paper–lined 5-x-9-inch loaf pan and sprinkle with sugar. Tent with foil and bake for 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
