Ingredients

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups fresh or thawed frozen blueberries
2 cups flour
1/2 cup whole, 2 percent fat, or 1 percent fat milk
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a muffin tin or line the cups with paper liners. In a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or using a hand mixer), cream the butter until smooth. Add 1 cup of the sugar and mix. Add the eggs, vanilla, baking powder, and salt and mix. In a shallow bowl, mash 3/4 cup of the blueberries with the back of a fork. Add to the batter and mix.

With the mixer running at low speed, add 1/2 of the flour, then 1/2 of the milk, and mix. Repeat with remaining flour and milk. Fold in the remaining 1 3/4 cups whole blueberries by hand until well mixed. In a separate small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar with the cinnamon. Use an ice-cream scoop or large spoon to fill the muffin cups 3/4 full. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar over the muffins and bake until golden brown and risen, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool in the pan at least 30 minutes before turning out.

excellent!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My kids loved these muffins! I filled the batter to the top and baked for 25 minutes. They came out perfect. My... blueberries were not very sweet and I loved the contrast between the tart blueberries with the crunchy sweet top. I will definitely make these again.Read more

A Little Bland
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

This recipe was a little bland for my taste although the muffin was nice and moist. The cupcakes were done before they got... that nice golden brown color. Cooking them longer would have dried them out. Overall I was a little disappointed. Read more

Great Recipe
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've made this recipe for years, it is the best. A note to Nina - re-read the recipe Hon. It tells you to divide the amount... of flour and milk and add it in two batches. It says "add 1/2 the flour, 1/2 the milk", meaning from the total amount. So the measurements are correct, you are just reading the recipe wrong.Read more
