  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Fold in the blueberries.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Notes

For extra flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon or lemon zest to the batter. These muffins also freeze well — store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
