- 1 cup milk (or buttermilk)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice ((omit if using buttermilk))
- ½ cup grapeseed oil (or canola or vegetable oil)
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour (plus 1 tablespoon for tossing the blueberries)
- 1½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
- Spray a muffin tin with baking spray. Set aside.
- **Note - Muffin liners may be used, but they aren't necessary.
- Toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon flour and set aside.
- In a small bowl, stir together the milk and lemon juice (if NOT using buttermilk). Set aside for 2-3 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the mashed bananas, buttermilk OR buttermilk substitute, eggs, oil, brown sugar, vanilla, and lemon zest.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the 2½ cups all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients into the wet, banana mixture and stir gently.
- Add the flour-coated blueberries to the muffin batter and gently fold them into the batter just until the blueberries are incorporated. Do not overmix.
- Use an ice-cream scoop or large spoon to fill the muffin tins 3/4's full with the muffin batter.
- Bake in a preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the muffins are golden and when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool for 10 minutes, and then run a knife around each muffin to loosen them from the tin.
- Turn all the muffins out onto a cooling rack and cool completely.
