The Best Bakery-Style Blueberry Muffins are moist, slightly dense, and LOADED with juicy blueberries! Use fresh or frozen blueberries! These are delicious for breakfast or as an afternoon snack!
Blueberry Muffins Recipe
Is there anything better than a warm blueberry muffin for breakfast? I really doubt it! My Classic Blueberry Muffin recipe is made with pantry staples you probably have in your kitchen right now! And assembly takes all of 10 minutes. Seriously… skip the bakery, bust out the blueberries, and make these today!
Blueberry muffins are made with plenty of butter, sour cream, and a dash of milk, so they’re super moist & flavorful! A little dash of nutmeg and a glug of vanilla will give them that classic bakery-style taste we all know and love. And 2 cups of blueberries ensure you’ll find juicy blueberries in every bite!
Serve warm, with softened salted butter, and extra blueberries on the side. And if you happen to have any leftovers (which rarely happens because they’re so delicious), you can simply pop them in the freezer for a future treat. We always have a few of these muffins hiding in our freezer! They keep for about 2 months and reheat like a dream. Perfect for a quick and satisfying breakfast!

Blueberry Muffins
Ingredients
For the Blueberry Muffins:
- 3 cups (360 grams) all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup (227 grams ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 3 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup full-fat sour cream, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 2 cups blueberries
Instructions
- Position a rack in the middle of your oven. Preheat oven to 400 degrees (F). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners and set aside.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, beat together the butter and sugar on medium speed until light fluffy, about 3 minutes, scraping the bowl as needed.
- Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, and scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl as needed. Add in the vanilla. Turn mixer off.
- In a spouted measuring cup, combine sour cream and milk.
- With the mixer speed on low, alternate adding flour mixture and sour cream mixture, beginning and ending with the flour, and mixing just until combined. The batter will be very thick, so don't over mix. Turn mixer off.
- Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
- Divide batter evenly among prepared muffin tins. Then place muffin tin on a large baking sheet (this extra layer helps ensure your muffin bottoms won't burn).
- Bake on the middle rack of your oven for 25 to 27 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle of a muffin comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan, placed on a wire cooling rack, for 10 minutes. Remove muffins from the pan and serve warm.

I made these muffins this week and they were delicious! I didn’t have sour cream so subbed Greek yogurt which worked out well. I’ve already been asked to make these on a regular basis.

JL says
The recipe states 1/2 cup butter but in the listed grams that is 1 cup butter. Which is the correct amount needed?

Hi Ashley, wanted to make try and make these muffins as I’ve had success with your maple pecan banana muffins. Is the butter measurement correct or is there a typo? It says 1/2 cup on it but with different amount in grams. Also do you think I can sprinkle some turbinado sugar on the top like you did with the maple pecan?
Miriam says
I used Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and oat milk instead of whole milk, the yogurt was honey flavored Instead of plain but still whole fat so they were a little sweeter but my god were they delicious. I also added some brown sugar on top, I filled the muffin cups all the way to the top and placed my muffin pan which is silicone on top of an airbake pan and I didn’t have burnt bottoms. The first round I did 400 for 27 minutes and a couple of them were still gooey so the second round I lowered the temp to 375 and left in for 35 and they ended up a little better off. Will be keeping this recipe. Thank you

Hi! Can I substitute whole milk for buttermilk? Would it be the same volume?? Thanks!
Pam Vioreanu says
Love this recipe! However, I believe there is an error on the butter measurement. 1/2cup=113.4g
