Ingredients

– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 cup granulated sugar

– ½ teaspoon lemon zest (optional)


Instructions

Creating Blueberry Cream Cheese Muffins is simple if you follow these clear steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
2. Cream Butter and Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth and fluffy.
3. Add Sugar and Eggs: Gradually mix in the granulated sugar, followed by the eggs, one at a time. Ensure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
4. Mix in Milk and Vanilla: Add the milk and vanilla extract to the mixture, stirring until well combined.
5. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
6. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
7. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to break them apart.
8. Fill Muffin Cups: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
9. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
10. Cool: Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

By following these steps, you’ll create an incredible batch of muffins that will have everyone asking for seconds!
