"These blueberry muffins combine a soft butter and milk-based batter with fresh blueberries that burst with juiciness in every bite. It is worth making for the ease of mixing dry and liquid ingredients by hand without the need for a mixer, resulting in moist and golden muffins in less than half an hour."

Delicious Blueberry Muffins: A Temptation in Every Bite

O Que Você Precisa Saber

- Mix the dry and wet ingredients in separate bowls before combining them to avoid developing the gluten in the flour. - Incorporate the blueberries delicately with a spatula at the end of preparation so as not to stain the dough and keep them whole. - Distribute the dough filling only two-thirds of each mold so that the muffins grow forming rounded tops without overflowing.

Chef Tips

- Dip the fresh blueberries in a tablespoon of wheat flour before adding to the dough to prevent them from sinking in the pan. - Do not overmix the batter after combining the wet and dry ingredients; stir only until the flour disappears to maintain the fluffy texture. - Add fine lemon zest along with the sugar to flavor the dough with citrus freshness.

Variations

- Muffins with crunchy streusel: cover the muffins before baking with a mixture of cold butter, sugar, and flour. - Version with cinnamon and nutmeg: add half a teaspoon of cinnamon powder to the dry ingredients for a more autumnal profile. - Whole wheat muffins with oats: swap half of the white wheat flour for fine whole wheat flour and fine oat flakes.

Substitutions

- Fresh blueberries: can be substituted with frozen blueberries (used directly without thawing), blackberries, or white chocolate chips. - Melted butter: use flavorless coconut oil, sunflower oil, or culinary margarine with 80% lipids. - Whole milk: replace with whole natural yogurt diluted in a little water or oat plant-based drink.

How to Store

Store the muffins in an airtight container lined with paper towels for up to 3 days at cool room temperature. If the weather is humid or hot, keep in the refrigerator for up to 5 days and heat for 10 seconds in the microwave before serving.

Can You Freeze It?

They can be frozen individually wrapped in plastic wrap and then in an airtight bag for up to 90 days. To thaw, leave at room temperature for 1 hour or heat directly in the oven at 160 ºC for 8 minutes.

What to Serve With

Serve accompanied by freshly brewed coffee, black tea with milk, or a cup of creamy cappuccino. They pair very well with a thin layer of butter with fleur de sel or homemade berry jam.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use frozen blueberries in this recipe?

Yes, add the blueberries still frozen directly to the batter without thawing so as not to release excess purple liquid.

Como evitar que os bolinhos fiquem densos e pesados?

Mexa os secos e líquidos apenas o suficiente para umedecer a farinha; grumos pequenos na massa são normais e garantem a maciez ao assar.

Do I need to use paper liners in the metal pan?

Using paper liners makes unmolding easier and maintains moisture, but you can also grease the cavities with butter and flour.

How to know the exact point to take it out of the oven?

Stick a toothpick in the center of a fritter; if it comes out clean and the surface is golden and firm to the gentle touch, they are ready.
