These are simple to make and will be the best breakfast blueberry muffins you have tasted! Skip the box; enjoy these homemade delicious and moist muffins!

Thought I would share this wonderful recipe that my dear friend Mary gave me many years ago. We were on a committee together and she invited me over for coffee to discuss some plans.

When I arrived, I knew there was more than coffee being served. Oh, the aroma! Can there be anything better than homemade baked goods? After the first bite, I decided these were the Best Breakfast Blueberry Muffins that I had ever tasted!

With simple recipes like this one, there is really no need to make blueberry muffins from a box!

I also love this recipe because it does not require much sugar in the batter and it is super easy to make. That is why I call them Breakfast Muffins. You will end up with 16 muffins which is perfect for a larger group or to freeze for serving later.

If you don't want to make muffins, the batter can be baked in a 9" round cake pan and served as blueberry breakfast coffee cake.

So turn the oven on, take out a few ingredients and share with your family, friends, co-workers, or eat them all yourself (it'll be our secret!). Make it a meal and serve with them with Baked Eggs Benedict Muffin Cups. Enjoy!

Special Equipment

muffin tin, paper baking cups (optional)

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
⅓ cup sugar
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
1 cup buttermilk
⅓ cup vegetable oil
1 egg
granulated sugar, for sprinkling on top

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F.
Grease the muffin tins or line with paper baking cups.
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and blueberries.
In a separate bowl, mix together the buttermilk, oil, and egg.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of the dry ingredients. Mix with a fork just until the flour disappears. Do not over mix! Batter will be lumpy.
Spoon the batter into the tins each about ¾ full.
Sprinkle each muffin with about ¼ - ½ teaspoon of sugar.
Bake for 20 minutes, until just golden brown.

Notes

Gr8 Make-Ahead Tip:

The muffins can be kept in the freezer after baking and cooling. Freeze on a cookie sheet for a couple of hours and once frozen, the muffins can be stored in a freezer container or freezer bag for up to 3 months.

Gr8 Baking Idea:

The batter can be added to a round 9" cake pan instead of a muffin pan. Bake at 400℉ for about 25 minutes. Test the center with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, the cake is done. If not, continue to bake until cooked through. Do not over-bake.
