Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 3/4 cup plain greek yogurt, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup milk, at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
- 1 tablespoon flour, for coating the berries
- 1/4 cup turbinado sugar, for sprinkling on top
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F and prepare the muffin pan with liners or cooking spray. If using two pans, set them up now for a faster bake.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, mix melted butter, sugar, and avocado oil until smooth. Add eggs and whisk well, then stir in Greek yogurt, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Combine dry ingredients with wet ingredients and mix gently just until combined; avoid overmixing.
- Toss blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour in a small bowl and fold them gently into the batter. Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes.
- Using a cookie scoop, fill the muffin cups in the prepared muffin pan, filling every other cup if desiring a taller rise. Sprinkle each muffin top with turbinado sugar.
- Bake muffins for 18 to 24 minutes, or until they are golden and a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
- Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For best results, use room temperature ingredients.
Frozen blueberries can be used directly without thawing; just coat them in flour to prevent sinking.
To enhance flavor, add lemon zest to the batter if desired.
