Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

½ cup granulated sugar

½ teaspoon baking powder

¼ teaspoon baking soda

¼ teaspoon salt

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

⅓ cup buttermilk

1 ½ cups fresh blueberries

4 ounces cream cheese, softened and cubed

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Optional: 1 tablespoon powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and buttermilk until smooth.

        Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

          Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries and lemon juice, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

            Add Cream Cheese Cubes: Carefully fold in the cream cheese cubes, ensuring they remain intact as they will create delightful pockets of creaminess in the muffins.

              Fill Muffin Cups: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full.

                Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

                  Cool and Serve: Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                    Optional Dusting: If desired, dust the tops with powdered sugar just before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.
