Ingredients
  

Batter Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour Substitute with gluten-free flour for a gluten-free option
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk Or substitute with homemade buttermilk (milk + vinegar or lemon juice)
  • 2 large eggs Bind ingredients together
  • 3 tbsp melted butter
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice Fresh juice preferred
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries Frozen blueberries can be used directly from the freezer
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon zest
Optional Toppings
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup For serving
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream For serving
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar For dusting

Equipment

  • 24-cup mini muffin tin

Method
 

Directions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin with butter or cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until well incorporated and free of lumps.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, mix together the buttermilk, large eggs, melted butter, fresh lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
  4. Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
  5. Add the fresh blueberries and lemon zest into the batter. Fold carefully to ensure even distribution.
  6. Fill each muffin cup about three-quarters full with the batter.
  7. Bake for 10 to 14 minutes, until golden brown. A toothpick inserted should come out clean.
  8. Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for about 5 minutes. Then remove the bites and serve warm or at room temperature.
