Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for coating blueberries)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with butter or cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, mix the sour cream, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in dense muffins.
  5. Toss the fresh blueberries with 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour. This helps prevent the blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the muffins during baking.
  6. Gently fold the coated blueberries into the muffin batter until evenly distributed.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. For a tall dome, you can fill them slightly more.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  9. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter. Do not overmix to avoid tough muffins. Fresh blueberries provide the best texture and flavor. Baking at a higher temperature initially helps create a tall, domed top.
