Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the muffin cups with oil.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the granulated sugar and eggs together until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
Add the vegetable oil, almond milk, and vanilla extract to the sugar and egg mixture. Whisk until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Gently fold in the blueberries and lemon zest (if using) into the batter using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Divide the batter equally among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 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 them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
