Description
Bake these classic pastries at home. Follow these instructions for moist and flavorful muffins with a balance of citrus and berry.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- ¾ cup milk
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Zest of 1 large lemon
- Juice of ½ lemon
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk the egg, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine. Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups. They should be about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a wooden skewer inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.
