Description

These jumbo muffins are packed with blueberries and the addition of sour cream and apple sauce make them extra moist. They can also be baked in a regular size muffin tin.

Ingredients

2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup applesauce
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup blueberries
1 tablespoon whiskey barrel smoked sugar (from Savory Spice Shop®)

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 6 jumbo muffin cups with cooking spray or line with paper liners.
2 Beat eggs in a large bowl with an electric mixer, gradually adding sugar, until thick and lemon-colored. Mix in sour cream, applesauce, and almond extract.
3 Combine flour, whole wheat flour, salt, and baking soda in a separate bowl. Stir into the creamed mixture just until dry ingredients are moist. Mixture will be lumpy; do not overmix! Gently fold in blueberries.
4 Spoon batter into the prepared jumbo muffin cups. Sprinkle whiskey barrel smoked sugar over the top of each muffin.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 28 minutes. Cool in the cups for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
