Lemon Blueberry Muffins

Inspired by my wildly popular loaf cake with the same flavors, these Lemon Blueberry Muffins are bursting with bright, summery flavor. They also turn out remarkably tender thanks to my secret ingredient: Greek yogurt.

Ingredients :
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 6 ounces fresh blueberries or 1 cup frozen
Directions :
  1. Move an oven rack to the middle position and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a muffin pan with liners and coat with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, yogurt, eggs, zest, and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients in 3 batches, whisking to incorporate after each addition. Fold in oil and stir carefully until uniformly combined. Fold in the blueberries and stir until just incorporated.
  4. Divide the batter into the prepared muffin pan and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove from the oven and cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Remove muffins from pan and cool completely on a wire rack set over a baking sheet.
