How to Make Simply Blueberry Lemon Muffins

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
In a large bowl, combine 1 box (16 oz) complete biscuit mix and ½ cup granulated sugar.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and ½ cup sour cream. Add this wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in 1 ½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries (no need to thaw frozen ones).
Fill each muffin cup about halfway full.
For the Lemon Topping (optional): Combine 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, and 1 teaspoon lemon zest. Sprinkle evenly over the muffin batter.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
