Homemade Blueberry Muffins!! How to Make Fruit Muffins from Scratch



Learn how to make moist and tender blueberry muffins at home! Loaded up with fresh blueberries, topped with coarse sugar and baked until golden brown, these are the perfect breakfast or morning snack! You can also use raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, make them triple berry, etc. Any berry will work for this recipe.

What you’ll need:
1 3/4 cups all-purpose (plain) flour
3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
3 ounces (6TBSP) vegetable oil
1 large egg, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 tsp white vinegar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed first)
coarse sugar for topping

In a small bowl, combine milk and vinegar and set aside. (Alternatively, use 1/2 cup commercial buttermilk.)
In a large bowl combine flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Mix well and add in blueberries and toss to coat. Add in milk and vinegar mixture, oil, egg and vanilla and mix just until incorporated. DO NOT OVER MIX! Mix only until no more dry ingredients remain. Let rest for 15 minutes.
Prepare your muffin tin by greasing the tops (or entire cups if not using cupcake liners). Evenly divide batter into 8 muffin spots. Top with coarse sugar and bake in a preheated 450*F oven for 10 minutes, reduce heat to 350*F and bake an additional 10-12 minutes. Let cool slightly and then serve! Store in an airtight container. Makes 8 medium muffins.

*For jumbo muffins, bake at 450*F for 12 minutes, reduce heat to 350* and bake an additional 12-14 minutes. Makes 6 jumbo muffins.
**For mini muffins, bake at 450*F for 5 minutes, reduce heat and bake an additional 4-6 minutes. Makes 20-24 mini muffins.

  1. Lovely Morning

    Thank you! Just bought a lot of blueberries and now I'm going to make your recipe! I don't use buttermilk for same reason and didn't know I could use milk with vinegar! Thank you ever so much! 😏👍👏😁😘 I will come back to let you know how they come out!

  2. The Bewitching Hour

    Wow, he gave some helpful tips that the other channels I've come across for this recipe don't give you. I knew about the buttermilk and the coating the blueberries but never thought to just let the batter set for a while. Which is weird because I've done that with brownie mix and it gets a crispier top to the brownies if you let it set before putting it in the oven. Same with cornbread mix.

    210g of flour and 150g of sugar in case anyone was wondering. They were perfect! Has anyone tried switching for other types of berries?

    I love how thorough you are, and how you get to the point!!! It's discouraging when cooks talk for 5 minutes about what they're going to cook…🙄
    Keep up the good work

    I followed the recipe but my dough turned out too liquid
    I had to add more flour
    Muffins raised unevenly and tops got slightly burned
    Too much sugar to my taste

  28. Bluu Bandette

    I was just thinking about blueberry muffins but I didn't want to buy an instant pack because the fake berries taste terrible. This will be great for my brother and me!

    Made these this morning. So superior to my box mix that I’ve used for year because I though they must be too hard to make. Thank you for this. I’ll try some of your other recipes later this week.
