Instructions
Creating these muffins is a breeze with our step-by-step instructions. Follow along to ensure you achieve that perfect melt-in-your-mouth texture.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with liners. This ensures your muffins bake evenly and are easy to remove from the tin.
- In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. These dry ingredients provide the base for your muffins.
- In another bowl, whisk together applesauce, oil, egg, vanilla, and milk. This combination of wet ingredients helps to keep the muffins moist and flavorful.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients until just mixed. Avoid overmixing to keep the muffins light and airy. Gently fold in the blueberries to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
- Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full. This allows room for the muffins to rise without overflowing.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool for a few minutes before enjoying. This brief cooling period helps the muffins set and makes them easier to handle.
