These delicious homemade mini blueberry muffins are perfect for breakfast, snack or dessert. And it’s a super easy, make-ahead recipe!
Equipment
Ingredients
- ¾ cup (94g) all-purpose flour plus 1 teaspoon for dusting blueberries
- 1 tsp (4g) baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 egg medium
- ⅓ cup (67g) caster sugar
- 3 tbsp (45ml ) melted butter unsalted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup (60ml) whole milk
- ¾ cup blueberries preferably fresh
Instructions
- Preheat the oven at 180°C (350°F).
- In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking powder and salt.
- In a small bowl, crack open the egg, followed by sugar, butter, vanilla extract and milk. Whisk until the sugar dissolves.
- Pour the wet batter into the flour mixture. Whisk lightly until everything is combined. Make sure you don't leave any flour at the bottom but don't over-mix this batter. A few lumps of flour are fine.
- Mix the blueberries with 1 teaspoon flour. This step will prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the muffin.
- Gently fold in the blueberries with the spatula.
- Line a mini muffin pan with 12 inserts. Add a tablespoon of the blueberry muffin batter to each liner.
- Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 15-18 minutes till a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out with no wet batter and the tops are golden brown.
- Let the mini blueberry muffins cool for 5 minutes in the muffin tray, then move to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
- Keep an eye on the blueberry mini muffins. They tend to cook fast. Overbaking can make them dry.
- For extra texture and sweetness, sprinkle white granulated or brown sugar on the muffins before baking. It forms a lovely crust.
- The batter will be on the thicker side, see video above for reference. If your batter is too thick, dilute with a splash of milk. Or if it is too runny add some all-purpose flour.
