Blueberry Thunder Muffins

Ingredients

•  2 cups all-purpose flour  
  
• 2 teaspoons baking powder  
  
• ½ teaspoon salt  
  
• ½ cup butter, softened  
  
• 1 cup sugar  
  
• 2 eggs  
  
• ½ cup milk  
  
• 1 teaspoon vanilla  
  
• 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries  
  
• 1 tablespoon sugar  
  
• ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon  
  

Directions

•  Step 1  
  Line sixteen 2-1/2inch (standard) or six 3-1/2-inch (jumbo) muffin cups with paper bake cups; set aside. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.
  
• Step 2  
  In a large mixing bowl, beat butter with an electric mixer on medium speed for 30 seconds. Add the 1 cup sugar; beat until well combined. Beat in eggs, milk and vanilla (mixture will look slightly curdled). Stir in flour mixture until just moistened (batter should be lumpy). Gently stir in blueberries.
  
• Step 3  
  Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, filling each nearly full. In a small bowl, combine the 1 tablespoon sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle sugar mixture over batter.
  
• Step 4  
  Bake in a 350 degree F oven 25 to 30 minutes (standard) or 35 to 40 minutes (jumbo) or until golden and a wooden toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool in muffin cups on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Remove from muffin cups; serve warm. Makes 16 standard or 6 jumbo muffins.
