Don’t you love comfort food? And it’s even better if it is pretty… and tastes scrumptious… and smells heavenly! That’s just how I feel about my favorite blueberry muffins. I love them warm right out of the oven. Oh, the culinary bliss! You need to try these muffins! But don’t eat them all because they freeze beautifully and can be warmed up in the microwave and eaten warm whenever you need a blueberry sprinkled treat! Yum-Oh-Yum! Let’s make blueberry muffins!
Blueberries are so good for you and in my mind that sorta offsets the sugar in the muffin! A sweet treat that’s good for you? Who knew?
What I love about this recipe is I don’t need to pull out my mixer. It’s all mixed by hand! And that is a very good thing to me!


- 3 1/2 cup all purpose flour, 1/4 cup reserved
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 4 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp table salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1 stick butter, melted and cooled
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 2 large eggs
- 2 pints, fresh blueberries washed and dried
- Preheat oven to 350 °. Line cupcake tins with paper liners.
- Sift 3 1/4 cup four, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. In another bowl mix the buttermilk, butter, lemon zest, and eggs until well mixed.
- In a third bowl add the blueberries and sprinkle them with the reserved flour. Mix very gently not to break the blueberries. This will keep the blueberries from falling to the bottom of the muffins.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until just incorporated. Gently stir in the blueberries.
- Distribute the batter evenly between 20 muffin cups. I like to use a standard size ice cream scoop to put muffin mixtures into the cups.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Can be frozen once cooled.

Good Morning Yvonne,
These blueberry muffins look delightful and I can’t wait to make them for my family to enjoy.
Thank you for your love and wisdom. I learn so many interesting things when I read your blog.
Sheila
I love reading your blog and I was wondering is the 333 because of Jeremiah 33:3 on your email
That just happens to be one of my life scriptures and it caught my eye.
Hi Yvonne!
I LOVE YOU AND YOUR POSTS! You always nourish me with His Word and so many wonderful ways to love my family — love ALL your home ideas. God bless you!
I cannot wait to try and make these muffins and try coloring some eggs with your cabbage dye recipe! I am hosting a ladies gathering next week and they will be my guinea pigs 🙂
I also love your wooden cutting board in this post — would you mind sharing where you purchased it?
Blessings,
Julie
The lemon zest really makes this recipe. I loved the taste of these muffins.

Yummy Yummy in my tummy!
My favorite muffins….blueberry! Thanks so much. Pam
These look delicious, I am going to try your recipe today! Thanks for sharing Yvonne
My favorite muffin blueberry!
Just now seeing this post! This recipe is a keeper. From my experience with past blueberry muffins, if you fold the berries in frozen, the batter stiffens up and creates somewhat of a mess. It also adds quite a bit of time to the baking. The outside looks done, but the inside is not! Live and learn.
Heading to the store this afternoon for blueberries and buttermilk. These look delicious.
We often make blueberry pancakes and occasionally muffins. I’ve never made muffins from scratch, but will give these a try because they look so yummy. Thank you!
Been looking for a good muffin recipe. Can’t wait to try it.
I’ll be giving this recipe a try. My boys love blueberry muffins!

Great recipe. I am heading to the freezer to take out my frozen blueberries out and surprise my family with these tonight. Thank you for sharing.
Just what I was looking for!
Yum, I love blueberry muffins. I’m gonna have to give those Jordan Marsh versions a try as well.
The muffins look great. I love fresh blueberries in muffins . I will make these one morning.
Thank you for the recipe.
YUM! Blueberry muffins are my favorite. I’m definitely going to try these.
I have a little secret. After I pull my blueberry muffins out of the oven, I immediately dip the tops in melted butter and then sugar. Shall we say, it is the icing on the cake. So delicious.
What a great idea! Trying this this weekend!
Muffins look great and I can’t wait to try them.
They look delicious! Hope they work with frozen berries.
YES! I will be trying these
Adding lemon zest to muffins always gives it a taste of freshness. We love blueberry muffins and I’d love to have one for breakfast this morning. Do you have any left??
One of my favorites gifts was fresh blueberries – I made muffins! I’ll try this recipe next time. Thank you!
Blueberry muffins are my favorite. Yummy for my tummy!!!
These sound delicious. My go to recipe can be googled. It is the original very famous Jordan Marsh blueberry muffins which were sold back in the east coast in their stores., News stories have featured the cult following that used to exist for these muffins.. Worth a try, I promise you..
I’m going to try your Blueberry muffins this week. They are our favorites here at our house!

My children and I love blueberries and muffins so the combination in this recipe is a welcomed one! Thank you for sharing Yvonne.

Yvonne! I’ve noticed for quite awhile that your photography is just awesome!!! Would you mind sharing with me the camera and lenses you use? I’m in the market for a new one to take pics of the various merchandise I handmake for my small Seasonal (last qtr) business! Your Blog photos are very enviable, at the very least!!! Thanks for your assistance! kath
p.s. Hope your recent activity means you are mended ~ we’ve all been worried about you being somewhat incapacitated … !
These sound and look yummy!

Oh Yvonne, keep these delicious recipes coming! You’ve had some really good ones that I am loving. Thank you.
Getting ready to make these! Yummy looking! Hope they are as good as they look! ?
These muffins make my mouth water! My husband and I are in a care home and we don’t get such good
things. I used to bake them, though. Thanks And it makes 20!!
I so wish I lived close enough to you so I could bake a dozen of these & bring to you & your husband. Blessings ??
These look delicious! Thank you so much for the recipe! Going to make them for my Grandchildren! Love???
Yum, can not wait to make these muffins.
Ohhh! They look so good! I’m a terrible baker and wish someone would bake for me! But these I might just try myself! Thank you for sharing!
I have our homegrown blueberries in the freezer. Have you ever used frozen berries in place of fresh?
I also have homegrown frozen berries, so wonder if I thaw the berries first? Can’t wait to try the recipe.
Hi Diane, I would thaw the berries and then dry them with a paper towel. Hope this helps.
Definitely going to make these tomorrow morning! Have to use frozen berries though – hope that will work!
Your photos couldn’t be more exquisite – where do you find fresh blueberries in February?
Found the trick to reheating the muffins in the microwave is so simple – wrap in cotton dish towel and nuke –
eat immediately! Pure heaven!
Hugs from the Rockies!
I was told to use frozen blueberries then they don’t pop and make a mess in muffin I’ve been doing over twenty years. Enjoy
Good to know!
My favorite kind of muffin!
They look wonderful! I would like one now!
These look yummy and the recipe is easy.I will
have to try these.
My husbands’ favorite muffin! After trying your sugar cookies I will definitely have to make these.
Thanks for sharing xx-hb
