Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup granulated sugar

- ½ cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries (tossed in 1 tablespoon flour)
- Optional: coarse sugar for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
- In another bowl, whisk oil, egg, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in blueberries.

- Bake for 20–25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Notes
Toss blueberries in flour to prevent sinking. Do not overmix – a slightly lumpy batter is okay. Use room-temperature ingredients for best texture. Sprinkle coarse sugar before baking for a golden, crunchy top.
