Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup buttermilk
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1.5 cups fresh blueberries
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the blueberries, being cautious to prevent them from bursting.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling them about three-quarters full.
Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
