Bakery Style Lemon Blueberry Muffins Recipes

BAKERY STYLE LEMON BLUEBERRY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375℉. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. Set aside.
• In a small mixing bowl, toss the blueberries with 1 Tbsp of the flour. Set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining flour, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
• In a large mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
• Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla and lemon zest.
• Turn the mixer down to low speed, and add half of the flour mixture, followed by the milk and sour cream, and ending with the remaining flour. Mix until just combined. Fold in the blueberries.
• Use a cookie scoop to portion the batter (it will be super thick) between the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup just about to the top. Generously sprinkle the tops with the Turbinado sugar.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the muffins are domed and golden and a cake tester inserted into the center of each comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes, before removing and cooling completely on a wire baking rack. Enjoy!!

Steps:

• For the crumb: Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly spray two standard muffin tins with nonstick spray and line 16 of the tins with muffin liners.
• Whisk the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt together in a medium bowl.
• Add the flour and mix until completely blended and crumbly, then set aside.
• For the muffins: Sift together the flour, sugars, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk the dry ingredients to combine, then make a well in the center.
• Whisk together the eggs, melted butter, oil, buttermilk and vanilla in a separate bowl. Pour the liquid ingredients into the center of the dry ingredients, then fold together with a spatula just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Don't overmix. Gently fold in the blueberries. Some may break, and that is okay.
• Use a 2-ounce scoop or a 1/4 cup measuring cup to portion heaping scoops of batter into each lined muffin cavity. Top each muffin with about 2 tablespoons of crumb, gently pushing the crumb in place.
• Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out with a few moist crumbs, about 25 minutes. (You may need to push some of the crumb aside to test the muffins.) Cool for 5 to 10 minutes in the muffin tin, then move to a wire rack to cool. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
