Whether you use fresh or frozen berries, the optional flour coating ensures even distribution without sinking. Ideal for breakfast, brunch, or a snack on the go, these muffins are baked to golden perfection in just 10–12 minutes. Enjoy them warm from the oven, or store for later—either way, they’re a delightful treat that proves homemade baked goods don’t have to take all day!
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and egg until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be lumpy.
If using frozen huckleberries, toss them with 1 tablespoon of flour to prevent sinking. Skip this step if using fresh berries.
Gently fold the huckleberries into the batter using a spatula until evenly distributed. Avoid overmixing to prevent bursting the berries.
Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
