Why You’ll Love This Blueberry Muffins Recipe
You are going to love these soft, buttery and moist blueberry muffins. There is no need for an electric mixer and the muffin batter comes together by hand in mere minutes. Because they are so quick and simple to make, they are the perfect treat to whip up any day of the week for breakfast, snack time or dessert.
If you’re a regular reader of my blog, you know that I generally like to keep things as healthy as possible. However, I’ve said before that pleasure and health go hand in hand. Healthy eating can definitely include partaking in a reasonable amount of desserts and calories. So this is one of those recipes for times when you feel like treating yourself and indulging. Portion size and frequency are important concepts to keep in mind, so enjoy recipes like this one in moderation. 🙂
One thing you can feel good about is since these muffins are homemade, you know exactly what’s inside the batter. This makes them better for you than most pre-packaged muffins that are available at the store. In addition, this blueberry muffin recipe is made with unrefined coconut sugar, so it is refined sugar-free.
Tips for Making The Best Blueberry Muffins
Here are a few pointers for baking the best blueberry muffins at home:
- Preheat the oven: Do not forget to preheat your oven first. Preheating is a vital step, because it promotes adequate rise in your muffins. If you neglect preheating your oven, you will also have to bake your muffins for longer than listed on the recipe, which can ruin the texture of the muffins.
- Don’t over-mix: To ensure you have light and fluffy muffins, mix the wet and dry ingredients until just incorporated and no more than that. Over-mixing the batter will result in tough, dense muffins.
- Use a scoop: I recommend using an ice cream scoop to portion the batter into the muffin pan cups. This will ensure an equal amount of batter in each cup.
- Test for doneness: See if your muffins are done baking by doing a poke test on the inside. To do this, stick the center of a muffin with a wooden toothpick. If the toothpick comes out clean, the muffins have finished baking and can be removed from the oven.
Use the simple tips above to ensure your muffins turn out perfect every single time! If you want to learn more recommendations for making the absolute best muffins, check out this helpful article from Tasting Table.
How to Freeze Homemade Blueberry Muffins
You can freeze these homemade blueberry muffins for up to three months. Here is how to do it: Once the muffins are done baking, allow them to cool off completely. Then, place each muffin in a freezer-safe zipped-top bag or container and pop them in the freezer.
When ready to eat, thaw the muffins in the refrigerator or out on the counter. To warm up, microwave the muffins on high for about 20 seconds or bake at 300°F (149°C) for 5-10 minutes.
