Description
Bakery Style Lemon Blueberry Muffins are an old classic with a fresh spring update: lemon. And lots of it! These muffins are super moist thanks to thick swirls of greek yogurt folded into the batter with fresh lemon zest. My favorite part about these muffins is the crunchy, sparkly sugar that bakes into the top of the muffins. So good!
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ T baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ t. Kosher salt
Wet Ingredients
- ¾ c. whole milk greek yogurt
- ½ t. Vanilla
- 1 large egg
- 4 T butter, melted and cooled
- 1 lemon (1 t. zest + the entire lemon, juiced)
- ¼ cup milk
Other
- 1 ½ cup blueberries
- ¼ c turbinado sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375° F and ensure oven rack is in middle position. Grease a 12 cup muffin tin.
- In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together wet ingredients until smooth.
- Add blueberries to the dry ingredients and toss lightly so the blueberries are coated in flour. This will help prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the muffin cups.
- Gently fold wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle some turbinado sugar over each cup of batter, if desired.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 20–25 minutes. I usually rotate my muffin tin halfway through baking.
- Cool muffins for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack. Muffins are best if enjoyed within 1–2 days.
