Blueberry Cream Muffins

Tender and fluffy vanilla sour cream muffins bursting with tart blueberries and a raw sugar sprinkle that all comes together in a crunchy, sticky, juicy, and full flavored treat. These really are the best blueberry cream muffins ever.

Oops, I did it again. I teased you with the best blueberry mufffins in the world on my Instagram stories from my recent appearance on FOX2. That made you hungry and I love it!

I don’t mean to post pics that are missing recipes. But I bake so much that I don’t always have time to blog about it all. So please request anything you would love to see through my Contact page and I promise I’ll get to it. But here you go, the best blueberry cream muffins that are ready in under 30 minutes!

Muffin Madness

February has been a hectic month, and we aren’t even done yet! I have had four TV segments this month alone, so I am baking like a woman on a serious mission! And loving every minute of it! Thanks for everyone who has been watching me locally and new friends that reached out after my mini appearance on The Tamron Hall Show!

I’ve had a love affair with blueberry muffins since childhood. It’s a classic bake that can be used for any occasion from breakfast to brunch to snack to dessert. And all of the secret nibbling moments in between!

I usually would not post a blueberry bake so soon after my Mandarin Blueberry Swirl Loaf and my Toasted Sugar Banana muffin post. However, after dozens of messages asking for my blueberry muffin recipe, I’m breaking my rule.

Plus, the weekend is coming and lazy Sunday mornings insist you make the best blueberry muffins!

Fresh Blueberries

The best blueberry cream muffins need blueberries bursting in every bite. And those berries need to leave sweet juice running in all the vanilla nooks and crannies. I always use fresh berries for my blueberry muffins. This way you can control the moisture while distributing the flavor and texture better. Additionally, I find that using fresh blueberries will shorten the baking time by a couple of minutes.

To achieve the perfect blueberry muffin make sure to smash up some of the berries. Use your hands or a fork to gently burst the fruit. This is another reason fresh fruit is essential for this recipe.

Batter

Muffin batter is thicker than cake batter since you are using less liquid to flour ratio. That can sometimes lead to a drier crumb.

I always use sour cream or creme fraiche in my blueberry muffins. Sour cream adds a touch of tang and creaminess to the muffins while also amping up the moisture. Check out my banana muffin post for some baking tips.

This is a one bowl muffin recipe that takes a couple of minutes to throw together. Then it bakes in about 20 minutes.

Thanks for making the best blueberry muffins ever! Follow me on Instagram for food pics that will drive you wild! Please share this recipe with the muffin lovers in your life. I really love post requests, so keep them coming. XO, Sarita
