8+ Easy Homemade Muffins, including Blueberry Chocolate Chip Muffins
Equipment
- Cookie Scoop (optional)
- Hand Mixer (optional)
- Reusable Baking Cups (optional)
Ingredients
- ¾ cup granulated sugar ( + optional extra tablespoon to sprinkle on top )
- ⅓ cup oil (coconut in liquid form, vegetable, or canola)
- 1 large egg (or flax egg to make vegan)
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (+ 1 tablespoon to coat blueberries)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup milk (cows or unsweetened non-dairy)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 6 ounces blueberries (6 oz usually = 1 cup)
- ¾ cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F and spray your muffin tin—or use these cute reusuable muffin liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, use a whisk or hand mixer to cream together oil and sugar until smooth.
- Add egg and whisk to combine.
- Add 1 and 1/2 cups flour, baking soda, and salt and whisk again, ensuring the batter is smooth and free from lumps.
- Whisk in your milk and vanilla extract until you're left with a smooth batter.
- Toss your blueberries in 1 tablespoon of flour to coat them and add the coated berries and chocolate chips to your muffin batter. Use a spatula to fold in the blueberries and chocolate, careful not to overmix.
- Use a cookie scoop or large spoon to fill muffin cups, leaving about 1/2 inch of space at the top for the muffins to rise. Add a little sprinkle on top of each muffin (optional) to get a crunchy muffin top.
- Bake for 15-17 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Enjoy warm!
Pro Tips
- You can use either fresh or frozen blueberries interchangeably in this recipe.
- Rather than use disposable muffin cups, be kinder to the environment and consider these reusable silicon muffin liners (also good for cupcakes!)
