Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1/2 cup sugar
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
1 egg, slightly beaten
3/4 cup whole milk
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
1/2 cup granulated brown sugar or white sugar

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.

In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and sugar. In another bowl, combine butter, egg, and milk and mix well. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and with a spatula, stir until just combined. Do not beat or over mix; it's okay if there are lumps in the batter. Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.

Spoon the batter into the muffin tray, filling each cup about 2/3 full. Bake for 10 minutes and remove from the oven. Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with the granulated brown or white sugar and return the muffins to the oven to bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Cool for about 10 minutes in the pan before turning the muffins out.

"Simple and Delicious"
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I am ten years old and I loved them I think they had a balanced sweetness . At first I was nervous about the 2 TABLESPOONS of... baking powder. It seemed like alot but I found that they tasted great. I think they were fluffy and moist and tasted delicious. Quick and easy recipe that I pretty much did on my own!Read more

VERY Torn from Paula
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I've made these twice, like most, watched on TV w/her guest and thought, WOW, I've GOT to make these. First time awesome,... second time, (followed it exactly) they turned out like cement (the batter) had to add more milk. I don't like combining the warm butter to the cold milk, it kind of curdles a little, then you are dumping that into the dry. 1 hit, 1 miss. I was so concerned, I made it a point to come here and check the on line recipe to see if it was me, and sure enough, there is alot from everyone to say about these muffins. If, from others suggestion, decreasing the flour & baking powder, increasing the sugar, "and" adding vanilla....WHY AM I EVEN USING THIS RECIPE. Seems pointless. It was nice to come here and read inputs...really helped~Thanks AllRead more

Best Blueberry Muffin Recipe
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was the best and easiest blueberry muffin recipe that I have ever come across. Make it exactly as the recipe states and... they will turn out perfectly. I'm with Jennifer from GA-these aren't like the box variety, so if you like those sweet box recipes stick to those, but if you want an easy, great recipe, try these out. They were gone as soon as I pulled them out of the oven. We don't eat a lot of sweets, and these muffins had just the right amout. This will be the only recipe I use for blueberry muffins from now on.Read more

simple adjustments
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Before making this recipe, I read all the reviews. I took the chance in making them, but I made some simple additions. ... Instead of using whole milk I used a little bit of half and half and 2% milk. I also used oats mixed with lemon sugar and brown sugar with a touch of crunchy cinnamon flakes for the topping. I turned these DELICIOUS muffins into a quite the tea muffin/dessert. I loved how they turned out! Read more

Perfect Bluberry Muffin Recipe
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

After reading the reviews, I got a little nervous but proceeded ahead because I've always trusted Paula. I only used 2 tsp of... baking powder because I didn't have 2 TB left in the can (mental note to buy more) so that was my only tweak. I used organic frozen wild blueberries (they're smaller) and sprinkled brown sugar between the layers. These turned out fantastic! Hands down the best muffin recipe I've tried yet. My kids ate them quickly and begged for more. These muffins were perfect with the amount of sweetness. It was enough to enhance the berries and not overpower them. These are MUFFINS for Pete's sake, not CUPCAKES. I think that those who are complaining about them not being sweet enough should stick to your boxed muffins or cupcakes (which is really what they are). Seriously. This again proves that American's eat way too much sugar. As for consistency, they were soft and moist and full of yummy blueberries. This is definitely a keeper!Read more
