Equipment

  • muffin tin
  • large bowl
  • medium bowl
  • whisk
  • Rubber Spatula

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • ¼ tsp. kosher salt
  • tsp. yellow gel food coloring

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 lemons zested and juiced
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ cup salted butter, melted (1 stick)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries divided
  • 2 Tbsp. turbinado sugar
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
 

Muffin Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with large paper liners.
  • Add the granulated sugar and lemon zest to a large bowl and, using clean hands, rub the zest into the sugar to release the oils and flavors.
  • Whisk in the sour cream, butter, eggs, and food coloring until smooth.
  • Fold in the flour and salt until just combined.
  • Fold in ⅔ cup of the blueberries.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the liners. Top with the remaining ⅓ cup blueberries and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar.
  • Bake until golden, cooked through, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with only a few crumbs, about 18 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove to a wire rack and let cool completely.

Glaze Preparation

  • Combine the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice in a medium bowl until smooth.
  • Drizzle the muffins with the glaze.
