Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for coating blueberries)
• Coarse sugar for sprinkling on top (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder until well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
5. In a small bowl, toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the muffins.
6. Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
7. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
8. Sprinkle the tops with coarse sugar, if desired, for a sweet, crunchy topping.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
10. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
