Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup buttermilk
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup blackberries, fresh or frozen
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 5
Gently fold in the blackberries, taking care not to crush them too much.
Step 6
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Optional: Once cooled, dust the tops of the muffins with powdered sugar for added sweetness and a beautiful finish.
Step 10
Serve and enjoy your Lemon Blackberry Muffins!
