For the horrific baker that I am, we sure have a lot of muffins around here! This one is on repeat these days...just too yummy!!

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, softened ( I use salted...)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon almond extract
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries ( any berries would work!

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and put an oven rack in the middle position. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. Spray the pan and the liners with non-stick cooking spray. You will bake for 30 min.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and granulated sugar for about 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl and beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract and almond extract. (The batter may look a little grainy -- that's okay).
  • Gradually add the flour mixture, alternating with the milk, beating on low speed to combine. The batter will be very thick. Add the blueberries to the batter and fold gently with a spatula until evenly distributed. Do not overmix.
