Recipe Blueberry Muffins Buttermilk

These delicious, easy to make Blueberry Buttermilk Muffins are not overly sweet and make the perfect breakfast or snack on the go!

Recently I have been on the hunt for a muffin recipe that is more reminiscent of the kind of grandma used to make, rather than the overly sweet, cakey versions you so often find in grocery stores today. And while I am not opposed to having cake for breakfast, I love that these simple and delicious muffins feel more like a classic breakfast than a dessert.

These muffins get a delicious but subtle tang from the buttermilk which also keeps them moist and tender. They are packed with fresh blueberries and I love sprinkling a little turbinado sugar on the top for a just a hint of extra sweetness. Perfect with a cup of tea or coffee!
