How to Make Best Ever Blueberry Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  3. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1 cup whole milk (or substitute as noted in description), and 1/3 cup vegetable oil.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the well in the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined; do not overmix.
  6. In a small bowl, gently toss 2 cups fresh blueberries with 4 tablespoons granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon lemon zest.
  7. Fold the blueberry mixture into the batter until evenly distributed.
  8. Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. While muffins are still warm (optional): Dip tops in melted butter, then in granulated sugar.
