Equipment

  • oven
  • muffin tin
  • mixing bowls
  • rubber spatula
  • whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups full-fat sour cream at room temperature
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 tablespoons salted butter melted and cooled
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries do not thaw if frozen
  • 1 teaspoon coarse sugar for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line 16 muffin cups with paper liners.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  • Add the sour cream mixture to the flour mixture. Use a rubber spatula to stir gently, just until the ingredients come together and you can’t see any dry pockets of flour. Gently stir in the melted butter and oil. Do not over-mix. The batter will be very thick!
  • Fold in the blueberries.
  • Fill the muffin cups to the top with batter. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of coarse sugar on top of each muffin.
  • Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pans on wire racks for 5-10 minutes. Remove the muffins from the pans and enjoy warm, or cool completely before storing in an airtight container.

Notes

Use full-fat sour cream for a rich, moist muffin. Allow the sour cream and eggs to come to room temperature for better blending. The key to a perfect muffin is just barely mixing the ingredients; a few lumps are fine. Fill the muffin cups nice and full for great domes.
