Blueberry Cream Muffins
Blueberry Cream Muffins are awesome. These delectable muffins are filled with boatloads of blueberries. The sour cream in the recipe keeps the muffins moist. The fruitiness from the berries cooks up delightfully. I added more blueberries on top along with some Turbinado Sugar. They were yummy, indeed!

I didn’t grow up eating muffins. My mom never made them. I started eating them through the years, but never made them myself. It wasn’t until after I started this blog 11 years ago that I started making muffins regularly. I suppose I thought they were too difficult or something. But they’re not! A few steps perhaps, but not difficult.
The secret to getting great muffins that raise well is starting the muffins at a higher temperature (425 degrees) to begin with. Then reduce the temperature after the heat causes the muffins to rise. It’s also helpful to have enough baking powder in the recipe so that the muffins raise adequately.
I was asked to bake some breakfast “things” for the Hostess Committee of our church for Easter Sunday morning. I made about five and a half dozen muffins, including Maple Bacon, Caramel Apple, Raspberry Cream and these muffins. They were all very well received and appreciated. (Especially when you’re dashing out the door trying to get to church at 6:00 in the morning!)
If you want your family to wake up to the delicious smell of blueberries for breakfast, give these Blueberry Cream Muffins a try. They’re marvelous for a weekend, holiday or company breakfast. Be prepared to have a run on the muffins though. Everyone will want seconds!

These muffins are terrific to serve company when you have overnight guests.
I used these ingredients.
Place flour in a large mixing bowl. Add granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Stir well to combine; set aside.
Rinse and wash blueberries well in colander. Gently pat dry between layers of paper towels.
Try to get as much moisture out of the blueberries as possible.
Add blueberries to flour mixture.
Stir ingredients to combine; set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, add eggs, sour cream and vanilla extract.
Add oil.
Whisk ingredients to combine.
Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients.
Stir ingredients to combine, mixing only until just moistened. DO NOT OVER-MIX!
Line muffin tins with paper liners. Spray each muffin liner with cooking spray. Spoon batter into prepared muffin liners to the top of the pan.
Add one teaspoon of Turbinado sugar over top of each muffin. Pat down lightly so sugar adheres slightly to muffins.
Spread about eight to ten blueberries over top of each muffin..
Bake muffins at 425 degrees for five minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake an additional 15-19 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Serve warm, if desired.
Every bite is so delectable and mouthwatering.
Blueberry Cream Muffins go marvelous with any company or holiday breakfast.
