I love muffins in all sizes and flavors, it’s no secret. Even if my favorite muffins will always be chocolate muffins, because I am a complete chocoholic, I am not a snob. I eat all kind of muffins. Maybe too much sometimes.
On this lazy Sunday evening I had to bake something – after a quick glance I decided I had all the ingredients I need for some blueberry muffins. You probably already have them too, to be honest. You don’t need anything that’s out of the ordinary, you also don’t need a mixer and this recipe is incredibly fast. You’ll be eating those muffins in 40 minutes after you decide to get to work 🙂
I used frozen blueberries because that’s what I had – I always have frozen fruits in the refrigerator, one might never know when a pie needs to be made, right? You can never go wrong with frozen fruits. You can use fresh blueberries if you have – it’s not much of a difference, anyway, so I prefer the frozen ones because it’s cheaper.
I usually bake my muffins in small, regular muffin liners, but I had some large ones around that I never got to use and I was also craving some bakery style muffins, so I made 6 jumbo blueberries instead of the regular 12 normal size muffins.

6 giant muffins

- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon

- Preheat oven to 220C.
- In a large bowl, gently mix together the dry ingredients - flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
- In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until combined. Mix in the wet ingredients - milk, oil and vanilla. Your mixture should be pale and yellow.
- Fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix everything together by hand. Gently, not to overmix. The batter should be very thick and somehow lumpy. Slowly, fold in the blueberries.
- Pour batter into prepared muffin tins, filling all the way to the top. Top with sprinkle coarse sugar if you want. Bake the muffins at 220C for the first 5 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 190C and bake for another 20-25 minutes.
- Cool for 10 minutes and enjoy!
* If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by simply measuring 1 cup (240 ml) of milk and stir 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Let stand for 5-10 minutes, then it's ready to use.
