Main Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup plant-based milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper cups or lightly grease it. Measure all ingredients to have them ready for quick mixing.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to distribute the leavening and sweetness evenly.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the plant-based milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract (natural) until well incorporated, forming the moist base.
- Blend Wet and Dry Together: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined, being careful to avoid overmixing.
- Fold in Blueberries: Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries to evenly distribute them without crushing.
- Bake: Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter to keep muffins light and tender.
- Use fresh or frozen blueberries; add frozen berries directly from the freezer to reduce color bleeding.
- Check oven temperature with a thermometer for even baking.
- Lightly grease or use paper liners to prevent sticking.
- Incorporate a small amount of natural gelling agent for extra moisture and a tender crumb if desired.
