    Why You Will Love This

    • Jumbo muffins- These are jumbo muffins, a great use out of the jumbo muffin pan! They are more fun than eating regular size standard muffins!
    • Easy to make recipe- The best part is this easy muffin recipe is incredibly easy to make with no electric mixer required!
    • Fresh blueberries- Fresh, juicy blueberries go perfectly in these muffins!
    • Crunchy muffin top- Top these with sugar for it to crystalize in the oven. It gives a little bit of crunch on top of each muffin to complement the tender muffin!

    Ingredients

    Here are some notes about the ingredients used.

    • Room temperature dairy ingredients- Pull these out 2 hour before baking
    • Melted butter- This is why the muffins can be made by hand!
    • Sour cream- Use full fat sour cream. The fat helps to break down the gluten.
    • Milk- Use cow 2% or whole milk. Don't use skim.
    • Blueberries- Fresh blueberries give the best results. You can use frozen, but let them thaw first.

    Step By Step Instructions

    Here are the steps to make and bake these blueberry muffins.

    STEP 1: Preheat the oven to 425F. The oven temperature starts higher to encourage the rise on the muffins. Use a jumbo pan with muffin liners.

    STEP 2: Mix the dry ingredients. Mix the all purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Use a sifter to prevent any flour lumps getting into your batter.

    STEP 3: Mix wet ingredients. In a large bowl, mix the melted butter, sugar, sour cream, vanilla extract, and eggs.

    STEP 4: Alternate mixing in dry ingredients and milk. Alternate these to insure they get fully mixed in, you don't want lumps of flour mixture.

    STEP 5: Add in blueberries. Separate the blueberries into 2 pies. Most will go in the batter, the rest will go on top. Be gentle to not bleed the blueberries.

    STEP 6: Scoop the batter. In your jumbo muffin tin, divide batter until each muffin cup is ¾ths full of muffin batter and top with remaining extra blueberries. Sprinkle the sugar on top of the muffins.

    STEP 7: Bake at 425F for 10 minutes. Then. reduce the oven to 375F and bake for 15-20 minutes. They will bake tall and fluffy. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool.

    Baking Tips

    Make sure to wash and dry the blueberries before you start baking. If they are wet, they are more likely to sink to the bottom of the muffin.

    Your milk and eggs needs to be room temperature before baking. If they are cold, it will cause a more short and dense muffin.

    FAQ

    Can I make regular muffins?

    Yes! Fill the regular muffin tin ⅔rds of the way and bake for 18-20 minutes.

    Warming the muffins

    I prefer to eat the homemade muffins fresh from the oven. However, I recommend heating the muffins in the oven for 10-15 seconds and serve with butter.

    Can I use almond or dairy free milk?

    I have not recipe tested this, but I am sure it will work.

    Can I make these muffins with no eggs?

    I have not recipe test this. If you use an egg substitution, let me know.

    Can I use strawberries or blackberries?

    Yes you can! That is a great way to switch it up when it isn't blueberry season.

    Storing And Freezing

    To store the muffins, you can keep them at in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge. Make sure they are well covered either way.

    At room temperature they will last 3-5 days. If they are in the fridge, they will last 5-7 days.

    Freezing

    You can absolutely freeze these jumbo blueberry muffins. Wrap them up tightly with plastic wrap, then place them in Tupperware or aluminum foil.

    To thaw the muffins, leave them out on a counter until room temperature. Then, you can microwave it for 15-30 seconds to warm it.

    Notes

     Flour- Make sure flour is spooned and leveled or use a kitchen scale. Compacted flour can dry out the muffins.
    High altitude baking- add an extra 2 tablespoon of flour.
    If using a 12 cup muffin tin, bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown.

      Excellent muffins. Easy directions and used ingredients that I had on hand. I followed your tip for baking in regular muffin tins. The batter made 14 (2 were baked in Pyrex cups.)

      These were great. I’m at 5200 feet and used the jumbo muffin tin. ( it made 7 muffins). I do agree about the vanilla though. (Natural vanilla) I’ll use a little less next time. Thx!

      Super easy and tasty! I subbed nonfat Greek yogurt and Truvia for the sour cream and sugar and baked for 15 minutes at 375.
