I am a lover of blueberry muffins! I die for those puffy bakery style muffins that have great texture and are piled high with a crumb topping. Yum!
Before I share my favorite blueberry muffin recipe, let me give you 5 Tips for Perfect Blueberry Muffins:
- Let all wet ingredients come to room temperature before mixing.
- The batter should not be stirred more that 15-20 times.
- Dust frozen blueberry with flour before adding to batter.
- Bake muffins at 425 degrees for the first 5 minutes, then turn oven down to 350 for remaining bake time.
- Let muffins cool in baking pan for 10 minutes before cooling on wire rack.

Muffins
- Combine flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a bowl and set aside.
- In a separate bowl: combine egg, butter, sour cream, yogurt, and vanilla.
- In a bowl with flour mixture slowly add egg mixture, making sure you don't over-mix the batter. The batter will be lumpy.

In the ingredients you say 1 egg but in the instructions you say combine eggs. Is it just 1 egg?
Cathy sorry about that…it should be just one egg.
I love the new look of your blog, Tracy! Great job! 🙂
Hello Tracy,
The butter doesn’t say stick, cup or tsp. Which is it?
Thank you,
Rhonda
It’s 1/4 cup of butter..sorry about that!
These look fabulous! I’ve never made my own muffins but I do enjoy blueberry muffins. #FridayFrivolity
I really like your tips to make better muffins – I am going to have to try implementing them the next time, becasue, I too love a good puffy bakery style muffin – yummy 🙂 Stopping by today from #MondayMusings
Now I have.a craving for using some of those blueberries that my daughters and I picked and froze last summer! It’s even a snow day on our homestead, so perfect timing! My MIL always flours her frozen berries; I never thought about it or replicated this step. Today I will! ThanksTracey! (Nice to have met you on the Simple Homestead blog hop.)
