Muffins are a grab-and-go morning favourite in our home. These light and fluffy blueberry muffins with sour cream are a delicious way to start the day.
Summertime is an absolute favourite to enjoy all those in-season fruits and berries. In fact we have a whole collection of over 20 fresh berry desserts to try.
I actually didn’t enjoy blueberries until adulthood. But now I can’t seem to get enough! Luckily the kids love these nutrient packed little gems.
These light and fluffy blueberry muffins with sour cream recipe actually work well with any fresh or frozen berries. Made with light sour cream (or low-fat yogurt) they’re actually a lower-calorie alternative to regular muffins.
TIP: To keep your blueberries from sinking to the bottom of your muffins (as they did in ours!) try lightly coating them in flour before adding them to the batter.
