Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar plus additional as needed
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 whole eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup butter melted and cooled, plus the rest of the stick for brushing on top
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
Instructions
  1. Pre-heat the oven to 375 and liberally spray a 12 well muffin pan with cooking spray. Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt together in a large mixing bowl and whisk them together to aerate them. Then combine the eggs, milk, 1/3 cup of melted butter, nutmeg and vanilla in another bowl and whisk them together until smooth. Pour those wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk all of it together until it is a thick, smooth batter. Take the blueberries and sprinkle them with a little sugar. This helps keep them suspended in the muffins. Then gently fold them into the batter with a spatula.
  2. Fill each of the muffin wells almost to the very top with the batter and make sure it is even in the well. Bake the muffins for about 20 minutes, until they are puffy and starting to become golden around the edges. Take them out and while they are still hot, brush them all with additional melted butter. Then sprinkle them generously with more sugar on top. Let them cool for about 10 more minutes, then remove them from the pan to cool completely. Enjoy them immediately with great coffee. They will also keep in airtight containers for a couple of days!
