Now, while you CAN use either fresh or frozen blueberries in this recipe, I recommend using fresh berries.
If you do use frozen blueberries, just make sure that you thaw the blueberries out completely and dab them with a paper towel to remove excess moisture before beginning the baking process. We don't want any extra liquid in our finished product.

How to make this Blueberry Lemon Muffins Recipe
Directions for making this Blueberry Lemon Muffins Recipe
If you are using fresh blueberries, you are going to begin by washing and drying your blueberries, then setting them aside.
Combine the eggs, butter and sugar and beat on low speed together until smooth. Then add in the grated lemon zest and fresh lemon juice along with the milk, mixing for one full minute before slowly starting to add in the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder and sea salt).
When the batter is fully together, slowly fold in the blueberries. Grease a mini muffin pan and then fill the muffin cups evenly with the batter. I always recommend using cupcake or muffin tin liners, as they make clean up a breeze - as well as making it easier to store the muffins!
Bake at 375 degrees for 11 to 13 minutes, or until the muffins are starting to turn golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Allow these delicious little lemon blueberry muffins to cool fully on a cooling rack before you dig in.
How Do I Store These Lemon Blueberry Muffins?
You can leave these muffins in an airtight container for up to 3 days before they begin to get stale, or you can even freeze them! These lemon blueberry muffins freeze really well! Just wrap them in cling wrap and use a freezer bag to store them for up to a month in the freezer.
