Instructions

  • Beat in eggs, vanilla, and buttermilk.
  • Measure out the 2 cups of flour into a separate bowl and remove 1 tablespoon (this will be used to toss the blueberries with).
  • Pour the flour (2 cups minus 1 tablespoon), salt, cinnamon, and baking powder into the creamed mixture.
  • Mix until *just* combined.
  • Gently toss the blueberries with the remaining 1 tablespoon of flour in a small bowl, then use a rubber spatula to gently fold them into the batter. Don’t overmix.
  • Evenly scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin.
  • Sprinkle each muffin with 1/2 - 1 teaspoon turbinado or sparkling sugar.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 20-35 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
