Muffin Supplies:

Muffin Pan – Standard Size – This is a standard size muffin pan and it makes 12 at a time. It’s the Wilton brand, and I LOVE mine. It’s so sturdy and well made!
Jumbo Muffin Pan – These are also Wilton brand. And they come in a set of 2, for a total of 12 jumbo muffins. I adore these pans!
Paper Muffin Liners – I like paper muffin liners. I have the silicone ones, and to be honest, they are straight up a huge pain to wash and clean, in my opinion. So I opt for paper muffin liners when I need them!
Paper Baking Cups – These are my favorite kitchen discovery in a long while. They act just like a muffin liner, except you don’t need the pan. This means no washing a muffin pan, which is a giant win in my world! And you can get them in such nice prints and colors! And you can make a BUNCH at one time on a cookie/baking sheet too!

General Kitchen Equipment:

Oven Mitts – Make sure you have good oven mitts to protect your hands!
Flat Whisk – I adore this OXO Good Grips Flat Whisk. If I couldn’t have anything else in the kitchen, THIS is the gadget I’d keep. It’s the best whisk I’ve ever had and the flat part of the design is such a game-changer for making things in the pan! I could not recommend this more! This is the only brand I’ve ever had, and I’m a big fan of all the OXO products.
Baking Sheets – These Nordic Ware natural aluminum commercial baker’s half sheets are my absolute favorite baking sheets I’ve ever owned in my cooking days! They are super heavy-duty, have a great rim around them, and they stay in great shape no matter what you cook on them. And they clean up incredibly easily as well!
Parchment Paper Sheets – This is parchment paper that’s already cut for you! And it is the size of a half baking sheet pan, which is absolutely perfect!
Mixing Bowls – These nesting mixing bowls are fabulous. They store easily and the lids come in so, so handy! I adore them and I love the colors!
Spatula Set – This is the greatest set ever. Not only does it have several handy spatulas, it has a few tiny ones too, to help you get every single scrape out of jars and containers!
Glass Mixing Bowls – This is a nesting set of glass bowls. I find I can’t have enough glass bowls in my kitchen!
Electric Hand Mixer – I love my Cuisinart hand mixer. I use it all the time. The best thing is the handy case it comes with to keep all the parts and pieces together!
Bamboo Spoon Set – I love to use Bamboo spoons for cooking and stirring in the kitchen! They come in so many shapes and sizes that are just perfect for every kitchen job!
Cooling Rack – These are nice and sturdy cooling racks for all your baking needs!

Baking Instructions:

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375*. Oven temperature is important here! It’s low enough these can bake for a while, and high enough to brown the tops of the muffins. This is how you achieve tender jumbo blueberry muffins!

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the dry ingredients of flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir together with a whisk and set aside.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, (I’d use a large-sized mixing bowl), combine butter and sugar with an electric hand mixer (or wooden spoon) until well blended.

Step 4

Add in eggs, mixing each one into the batter completely before you add the next egg.

Step 5

Once all eggs are well combined with your wet ingredients, add in the flour mixture a little at a time until all dry ingredients are incorporated.

Step 6

Stir in half and half and mix until the entire bowl of batter is well combined.

Step 7

With a rubber spatula, gently fold in the blueberries so you don’t smash them.

Step 8

Spoon batter into a lined (or greased) muffin pan or paper baking cups, and divide batter evenly among the cups.

Step 9

Bake the muffins at 375* for 25-35 minutes (depending on your pan/tin/cup size), until the tops of muffins have a light brown color and the center of your muffins are cooked through.

Step 10

Let muffins cool slightly on a cooling rack before serving. But do serve them warm. Fresh muffins out of the hot oven are just magical.

Storage

Store these jumbo muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Reheating Muffins

If you have leftover muffins, you can microwave them or put them in the oven wrapped in foil to reheat. Either way, remove your liners and wrappers before reheating! If I’m reheating mine in the microwave, I like to wrap them in a lightly moist paper towel to keep them from drying out in the microwave.

These are obviously perfect for breakfast, but I adore them reheated with some coffee for an afternoon snack!
