Starbucks Blueberry Muffins Recipe

I don’t know about you, but the smell of homemade blueberry muffins baking in the oven is always so comforting and cozy.   And I love to make this easy blueberry muffin recipe in the spring and summer when fresh blueberries are accessible.  My family loves to pick blueberries in late May/early June as a fun, family activity. Not only do I love making these Starbucks Blueberry Muffins Recipe, but I love to make my Classic Homemade Blueberry Pie.

These moist blueberry muffins use fresh ingredients and even better,  they are a fraction of the cost of what you would pay when you visit Starbucks. These best blueberry muffins are the real deal, folks.  And they are the best coffee accompaniment!  Or a glass of cold milk or hot tea would be perfect too

The Players for this Starbucks Blueberry Muffins Recipe

Ingredients for Muffins:

  • Flour – White all-purpose flour is what I use for these delicious muffins.
  • Baking Powder –  This will help the muffins rise. 
  • Baking Soda – Using the combination of both baking powder and baking soda will help bring height to the muffins.
  • Salt – Using salt will bring all of the flavors together.
  • Butter –Room temperature butter is perfect for these muffins. I know many muffins use vegetable oil, but these muffins have the best texture with butter.
  • Sugar –  Plain white granulated sugar is what you’ll need for this Starbucks Copycat recipe. 
  • Eggs – Just two room-temperature large eggs will help make these muffins exceptionally moist.
  • Milk –  I always use whole milk in baking.  Gimme all the fat please lol!
  • Vanilla Extract – This brings warmth and sweetness to the muffins.
  • Blueberries –  I always use fresh blueberries when making these Starbucks muffins.  If you want to use frozen, I would keep them frozen when you add them to the batter mixture. 

Ingredients for Streusel Topping:

  • Butter – You’ll need cool butter to make a crumb topping.
  • Flour –  Just a couple of tablespoons of white flour is what you’ll need to help make the topping crumbly. 
  • Brown Sugar –  The addition of brown sugar helps bring a deeper warmth to the sweet topping. 
  • White Sugar –  I like using both brown and white sugar for the streusel topping.

Tools for these delicious Blueberry Muffins:

  • Muffin Tins – I absolutely love these Williams Sonoma muffin tins!  The muffins come out clean every single time.  
  • Muffin Liners – I love using brown, natural paper liners when baking muffins.  It gives a pretty, rustic look to the muffins.  

How to Make Starbucks Blueberry Muffins Recipe

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and set your oven rack in the middle of the oven. Line a muffin tin with paper liners and spray the liners and top of the muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. 

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set the bowl aside.

In a large bowl, combine your butter, sugar, and eggs until thoroughly combined.  Add in your milk and vanilla extract.

Add your dry ingredients to your wet ingredients and mix until just combined.  You don’t want to over-mix the batter.  Using a spatula or wooden spoon, gently fold in your blueberries.
