How do you make blueberry muffins better?

By using sour cream, these muffins are super moist and have the best texture.

Lemon zest adds a lovely pop of flavor that makes these taste like something from your favorite bakery!

How to make sour cream blueberry muffins

Step 1: Line a muffin tin with 12 liners and preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

I prefer to use parchment paper muffin liners, as nothing will stick to them.

Step 2: Whisk together the wet ingredients in a bowl: sour cream, sugar, eggs, melted butter, and lemon zest.

Step 3: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.

Step 4: Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined.

Do not over mix, as this will result in dense muffins.

Step 5: Fold the fresh blueberries into the muffin batter using a rubber spatula.

Step 6: Distribute the blueberry muffin batter into the lined muffin tin.

Bake the sour cream blueberry muffins at 350 degrees for 20 – 23 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Once the muffins are finished baking, remove them onto a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
