Equipment

  • 1 muffin pan
  • 12 muffin liners
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 small mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

Muffin Ingredients

  • 2 cups self rising flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups blueberries fresh or frozen

Lemon Glaze Ingredients

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the over to 350 degrees F. 
  • Line a muffin pan with paper cupcake liners or silicone muffin cups, then set aside. 
  • In a large bowl, add the self rising flour, sugar, salt, and zest. Whisk the dry ingredients together to combine. 
  • Slowly add in the wet ingredients of milk, oil, egg, lemon juice, and vanilla, stirring until the mixture forms a batter.  Gently fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed throughout the batter. 
  • Using a cookie scoop, evenly divide the batter filling the muffin liners, filling about 3/4 full, then place in the preheated oven, and bake for 18-20 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and spring back when lightly touched on top, or when a toothpick inserted comes out clean. 
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for about five minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. 
  • Once muffins are cooled, in a small mixing bowl, add the powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Add additional juice until the glaze reaches your desired thickness.
