2. You can either line your muffin tin with parchment paper or grease it with oil.
3. Mix all the dry ingredients like sugar, baking powder, etc, in one bowl. 
4. In another bowl, mix all the wet ingredients.
5. Afterwards, pour the wet into the dry (not otherwise).
6. Stir the mixture gently.

8. The next step is to spoon the mixture into muffin cups (preferably about ¾ full).
9. Finally, bake for up to 20 minutes. 

There you have it!

Flavorful blueberry muffins within 20 minutes!

Now, before I wrap this up, let’s discuss some important points. 

Can I Use Frozen Blueberries? 

YES! You can use frozen blueberries. Now, don’t just run off. There are some things to put in place.

Keep this in mind:

• Don’t thaw your frozen blueberries before tossing them into the mixture. This helps them to hold up pretty well. It also prevents them from releasing excess moisture into the batter prematurely. 

• This is optional, but has proven helpful over time. “Flour Coating” prevents your blueberries from sinking to the bottom of your muffin. Just sprinkle some flour on it. That’s all!

Toppings or Mix-Ins to Try Ideas

When it comes to toppings or mix-ins, it is okay to get creative. However, let me suggest a few that I’ve tried over time. They blend perfectly with your blueberry muffins. 

• Cinnamon sugar topping adds an aromatic flavor to your blueberry muffins. So, if you want a warm, comforting “fruity” snack, this topping is perfect. 

• Lemon zest infuses a bright, citrusy flavor into your snack. Trust me, every bite is a classic delight. This is my favorite among ‘em all.

• White chocolate chips give your muffins an extra crunch. It also adds a chocolatey flavor to the mix. 

Everything you need is right here!
