Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings 12 muffins

Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar ( + optional extra tablespoon to sprinkle on top )
  • 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!)
