Easy Blueberry Muffins

Recipe Ingredients

Here are the ingredients that make these Easy Blueberry Muffins so irresistible.

Original Bisquick™ Mix: This is your secret weapon for quick and easy baking! Bisquick is pre-mixed, saving you time and effort in measuring individual dry ingredients. It's the foundation for this fluffy muffin recipe.

Milk: Milk adds moisture to the batter, creating a tender crumb and ensuring your muffins aren't dry. It also helps to activate the leavening agents in the Bisquick, contributing to that lovely rise.

Sugar: Sweetness, of course. Sugar not only makes these muffins delicious but also helps with browning, giving them that appealing golden crust.

Vegetable Oil: For ultimate moisture and a soft texture. Oil helps keep the muffins moist for longer and contributes to a tender, delicate crumb.

Egg: The binder. Eggs provide structure, richness, and help emulsify the ingredients, creating a cohesive batter.

Fresh or Frozen Blueberries: These bursts of flavor add natural sweetness, a delightful tang, and beautiful color to every bite. Whether you use fresh blueberries in season or frozen blueberries (just thaw and drain them!), they're essential for that classic blueberry muffin taste.

How to Make Easy Blueberry Muffins

Get ready to bake some amazing Easy Blueberry Muffins. Follow these three simple steps for perfect results every time! See the full recipe below for all the details.

1. Prep

Heat your oven to 400°F. A hot oven helps the muffins rise quickly and creates that lovely domed top. And whether you're using paper liners or greasing the muffin cups, make sure they are ready before you start mixing. If greasing, only grease the bottoms to help the muffins climb the sides and get a good rise.   

2. Mix

The secret to tender muffins is to avoid overmixing – a few lumps are perfectly fine! Leave the blueberries out until the other ingredients are mixed, then gently fold them in.

3. Bake

Keep an eye on your muffins during the last few minutes of baking. They are done when they are beautifully golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

How to Store (and reheat) Easy Blueberry Muffins

To keep your delicious Easy Blueberry Muffins fresh and enjoyable for as long as possible, here's how to store them.

Room Temperature

Once your muffins have completely cooled, store them in an airtight container. You can place a paper towel at the bottom of the container and another on top of the muffins to absorb any excess moisture, which helps prevent them from getting soggy. They will stay fresh for up to 3 days.

Refrigerator

If you need them to last a bit longer, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh for up to 1 week.

Freezer

Wrap each cooled muffin individually in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe airtight container or heavy-duty freezer bag. Store for up to 3 months. When you're ready for a treat, simply remove a frozen muffin and let it thaw at room temperature for an hour or two.

Reheating

Thaw first if frozen, then heat muffins in the microwave for 10-15 seconds on high, or until warmed.
