Blueberry muffin
A blueberry muffin is a type of muffin prepared using blueberries. It is often eaten as a breakfast food or snack. There are many different recipes for blueberry muffins, with various ingredients including butter, milk, eggs, flour, baking powder, white sugar, and fresh or frozen blueberries.
The first blueberry muffins are thought to have been made in the early 1800s. They were likely created as a way to use up extra blueberries that were not able to be sold. The first published recipe for blueberry muffins appeared in an 1873 cookbook. This recipe did not include any leavening agent, resulting in a dense muffin.
In the early 1900s, recipes for blueberry muffins began to appear in newspapers and magazines. These recipes often included ingredients such as sour milk or cream, which helped to make the muffins lighter and more cake-like. By the mid-1900s, blueberry muffins had become a popular breakfast food in the United States.
Advice
To make delicious blueberry muffins, start by preheating the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, in a large bowl, mix together 1 2/3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 cup of sugar. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 egg, 1/2 cup of vegetable oil, and 1/2 cup of milk. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Gently fold in 1 cup of blueberries and divide the batter between 12 muffin cups. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. To ensure the muffins come out moist and fluffy, avoid overmixing the batter and try to use fresh blueberries if possible.
