Fresh wild blueberries are the star of these Best-Ever Blueberry Muffins. Made with simple pantry staples and just a little sugar, they let the berries’ flavor shine. This recipe from Yankee Magazine’s Great New England Recipes makes a dozen muffins to share at breakfast, tuck into lunchboxes, or enjoy with afternoon tea.

Ingredients
1-3/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg, well beaten
3/4 to 1 cup milk
1/3 cup oil
1 cup fresh wild blueberries

Instructions

Sift together flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the center. Combine egg, milk, and oil, and pour into well in the dry ingredients, stirring quickly just to moisten. Do not stir too much! Toss blueberries with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and gently stir into batter. Fill greased muffin tins two-thirds full. Sprinkle tops with sugar. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes at 400 degrees F.
