2. Prepare Dry Ingredients:
   In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and lemon zest. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.

3. Prepare Wet Ingredients:
   In a separate medium-sized bowl, beat the egg. Add in the milk and melted butter, then mix until well combined.

4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
   Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together until just combined. It’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy; overmixing can make the muffins tough.

5. Add Blueberries:
   Carefully fold in the frozen and fresh blueberries into the batter. Be gentle to avoid smashing the berries.

6. Fill Muffin Pans:
   Grease a muffin tin or line it with muffin liners. Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with the batter.

7. Bake:
   Place the filled muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake at 425°F (220°C) for about 20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

8. Prepare Topping:
   While the muffins are baking, prepare the topping. In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter and lemon juice. In a separate dish, place the white sugar.

9. Coat Muffins:
   Once the muffins are slightly cooled but still warm, carefully remove them from the muffin tin. Dip the top of each muffin into the butter mixture, then immediately dip into the sugar, coating the tops evenly.

10. Serve and Enjoy:
    Allow the muffins to cool completely on a wire rack before serving. These Blueberry Lemon Muffins are best enjoyed fresh, but they can also be stored in an airtight container for a few days.

Indulge in the heavenly combination of juicy blueberries and tangy lemon in every bite of these moist and flavorful muffins. Whether you enjoy them for breakfast, as a snack, or as a sweet treat any time of the day, they are sure to be a hit with family and friends. So, gather your ingredients and let’s bake up some deliciousness! 🫐🍋
