Whether served warm out of the oven or at room temperature, these easy-to-make blueberry muffins promise to become a staple in your baking repertoire.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease each cup with nonstick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a medium bowl, mix the melted butter, whole milk, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined, taking care not to overmix.
Toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour, then fold them gently into the batter to evenly distribute.
Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
If desired, sprinkle turbinado sugar over the tops of the muffins for added crunch and sweetness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
