Easy One-Bowl Blueberry Muffins {Honey-Sweetened}
These delicious and easy one-bowl blueberry muffins are sweetened with honey. They make the perfect breakfast or yummy snack.
Ingredients
- ½ cup neutral-flavored oil see note
- ¾ cup (8 ounces) raw honey see note
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups (10 ounces) all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup (5 ounces) blueberries see note
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners and set aside.
-
In a medium bowl combine the oil, honey (make sure it is runny first, see note) and eggs and whisk until emulsified and smooth. Add buttermilk and vanilla and whisk well until combined.
-
Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda and mix with a rubber spatula just until a few dry streaks remain. Then gently fold in blueberries just until combined and no dry streaks remain. Don't overmix or muffins will be dry and tough.
-
Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups (I like to use a #20 cookie scoop). For rustic looking muffins leave as is. But if you're looking for a smoother finish, smooth the tops gently with wet fingers and press a few extra blueberries into the tops, if desired.
-
Bake for 24-27 minutes until the tops spring back lightly to the touch and/or a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Recipe Notes
1. Neutral flavored oils work best in this recipe: canola, vegetable, avocado oil, etc.
2. I use raw honey in this recipe that I buy in bulk from a local source. If you use regular honey from the store keep in mind that it is not always the same. Often honey from the store has been watered down or mixed with corn syrup and recipes made with it (especially baked goods) will turn out very different.
3. If your honey is super hard (or crystallized), make sure it is runny before mixing it or it won't distribute properly. I usually heat it in the microwave for 30 seconds to a minute before using in this or other baking recipes.
3. Fresh blueberries will give the best looking results because frozen blueberries bleed a little more. But frozen blueberries (don't thaw them first) work great in this recipe.
