Easy Blueberry Muffins

This is a great blueberry muffin recipe to have on hand. My 10-year-old and her friend made these all by themselves and it was manageable for them and they turned out delicious! I got a great deal on frozen blueberries so this was a great way to use them up. Recipe and photo from Eating on a Dime.




Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar plus 1 tablespoon for muffin tops
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 large egg
1/3 – 1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 to 8 ounces fresh or frozen blueberries about 1 cup frozen blueberries

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400ยบ F

In a large bowl whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt,

Use a measuring cup that holds at least 1 cup and add vegetable oil, egg and then fill the cup to the 1-cup line with milk (about 1/3 to a 1/2 cup of milk).

Add vanilla and whisk until combined.

Add milk mixture to the bowl with flour and sugar then use a fork to combine. Do not over mix. (The muffin batter will be pretty thick).

Add blueberries and use a spatula or spoon to gently fold the blueberries into the muffin batter.

Divide the batter between the muffin cups filling about ½ full.

Sprinkle a little sugar on top of each muffin.

Bake for 15-20 minutes.
