Ingredients 

Cupcake Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup sour cream room temperature
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest grated
  • 1 cup blueberries fresh or frozen

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract, sour cream, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about ⅔ full.
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
