Instructions
Making Blueberry Muffins in the Thermomix is super easy.
Step 1: Preparation
Make sure you have your oven pre-heated and your muffin tray ready lined with muffin cases.
This means that you can get your muffins in the oven straight away without having to let the batter sit around.
Step 2: Make the muffin batter
Start by adding the butter and sugar to the Thermomix bowl and creaming together for 30 seconds.
Next add all the remaining ingredients, except the blueberries (so the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, flour, baking powder and salt) and mix for another 30 seconds.
Finally measure in the blueberries and use a spatula to mix them into the muffin batter.
Step 3: Bake the muffins
Now you just need to divide the mixture into your muffin tray (use a cookie or ice cream scoop to make this quicker and easier and for more equal quantities) and pop them in the oven for 20 minutes.
Top Tip: To help the muffins look even better, save a few blueberries to add to the top of the muffins after you have scooped them into the tray. This way they will be more prominent on top of the muffin.
Allow them to cool in the tin for just a couple of minutes before transferring to a rack to cool.
