These crispy bakery-style blueberry muffins feature tall domes, a crackly golden crust, and a tender crumb with juicy bursts of blueberries, perfect for a quick and comforting breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) sour cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups (225g) fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 2 tbsp turbinado sugar or coarse sugar (optional topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs until frothy. Stir in melted butter, sour cream, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and fold gently with a spatula until just combined; batter should be thick with some lumps.
  5. Gently fold in blueberries, being careful not to break them.
  6. Spoon batter evenly into muffin cups, filling about 3/4 full. Sprinkle turbinado sugar on top if using.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden brown with tall domes and a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Cool muffins in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to maintain crispy edges.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs for better volume. Avoid overmixing the batter to keep muffins tender. Preheat oven fully to 400°F for tall domes and crispy tops. Sprinkle coarse sugar on top for extra crunch. For gluten-free, substitute flour with a 1:1 gluten-free blend. For dairy-free, use coconut yogurt and plant-based butter. Frozen blueberries can be used but fold in gently.
