   • Begin by cutting the butter into the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt, as you would for a pie crust. This step helps to ensure a tender crumb in your muffins.

2. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

   • In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and milk until well combined. Then, gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just moistened. Take care not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.

3. Incorporate Blueberries:

   • Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, being careful not to crush them. The burst of blueberry flavor in every bite is what makes these muffins truly irresistible!

4. Bake to Perfection:

   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and generously grease a muffin tin or line with muffin cups. Fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full with the batter, distributing the batter evenly.

5. Bake:

   • Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

6. Enjoy the Aroma:

   • As the muffins bake, your kitchen will be filled with the irresistible scent of freshly baked blueberry muffins, enticing everyone nearby.

7. Serve and Indulge:

   • Once baked to perfection, allow the muffins to cool slightly in the tin before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. These muffins are best enjoyed warm, with a pat of butter or simply on their own.

These delectable blueberry muffins are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a wholesome snack any time of the day. Share them with family and friends, or savor them all to yourself – either way, they’re sure to be a hit!
