Ingredients

Cream Cheese Filling

  • 4 oz. cream cheese
  • 1.5 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1.5 tablespoons milk any kind

Dry Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup salted butter softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup milk any kind

Instructions

  • Start by preheating the oven to 350ºF and spray a muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or place liners into the muffin tin.
  • Then, prepare the cream cheese filling. Place cream cheese, maple syrup, and milk into a bowl and mix well until combined. Set aside for later.
  • Next, mix together all of the dry ingredients (except for the blueberries) in medium-sized mixing bowl and set aside.
  • Then cream butter and sugar by placing softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar into a large bowl and cream them together on low using a stand or held mixer. Mix until there are no more lumps and everything is smooth.
  • Then, crack eggs into the butter and sugar mixture and mix on low until combined.
  • Add the sour cream, vanilla, and milk, to the butter mixture and mix on low until all ingredients are combined together.
  • Carefully spoon 1/3 cup of the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients at a time while mixing on low to allow the dry ingredients to be completely combined into the wet ingredients before adding another 1/3 cup. Repeat until all of the dry ingredients have been added to the wet ingredients.
  • Finally, fold blueberries into the muffin batter.
  • Assemble the blueberry cream cheese muffins by placing 2 tablespoons of muffin batter on the bottom of each muffin cup.
  • From there, add one tablespoon of the cream cheese filling to each muffin cup.
  • Finally, add 2 more tablespoons of muffin batter to each muffin cup covering the cream cheese filling. The muffins should be 3/4 of the way full.
  • Gently shake the muffin tray so the muffin batter evens out and place the muffin pan in the oven.
  • Bake at 350ºF for 20-22 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes and then remove them from the muffin tin and allow the muffins to cool completely on a cooling rack.
