We made this recipe gluten-free by using oat flour. If you decide to use a flour other than all-purpose, check to see if this is a 1:1 substitution. That means you can use the same amount of oat flour as the all-purpose flour.

-
In a large bowl, mix melted butter, sugar, salt and vanilla.
-
Add the egg and whisk to combine.
-
In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder and baking soda.

-
Add half the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until mostly combined.
-
Add sour cream and buttermilk and mix.
-
Add remaining dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
TIP: Avoid overmixing to keep muffins tender.

Toss blueberries with 2 teaspoons flour and gently fold into batter.
TIP: Coating berries helps prevent sinking.

Bake for 10 minutes at 400°F, then reduce heat to 350°F and bake for 10–14 minutes until golden and cooked through.
