Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, mix the vegetable oil, egg, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the blueberries gently to avoid crushing them.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Sprinkle coarse sugar on top if desired.
- Bake for 18–20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor and texture. Avoid overmixing the batter to keep muffins fluffy. Baking at high heat initially helps create tall domes.
