Most of you have probably noticed by now that my original bakery recipes all have a tad bit of adult spirits in them... my pumpkin blueberry muffins are no different. The Southern Comfort adds a nice perk to the pumpkin and who doesn't love blueberries in a muffin? Fall will be here before you know it, so start practicing - and eating- these muffins now. Enjoy!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Who knew that blueberries and pumpkin would go so well together? These pumpkin muffins are different but so good. They are slightly dense but moist and don't have a ton of blueberries but enough to know they're there. Southern Comfort adds a unique flavor to the muffin. Coarse sugar on top is a nice crunchy touch. These will make your fall afternoon even better.

How To Make blueberry pumpkin southern comfort muffins

  • Muffin tin sprayed with no-stick spray.
    1
    Preheat over to 425 degrees. Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray (I recommend using a king-size muffin tin as we are baking these to bake up high, but this will work in a regular tin as well).
  • Flour, baking powder salt, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg in a bowl.
    2
    In a large bowl, gently mix flour, baking powder salt, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg until combined.
  • Eggs, sugar, oil, milk, vanilla extract, Southern Comfort, and pumpkin combined in a bowl.
    3
    In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, and brown sugar until combined. Mix in oil, milk, vanilla extract, and Southern Comfort. Fold in pumpkin.
  • Incorporating wet into dry ingredients.
    4
    Fold wet ingredients into dry and mix gently until just incorporated. The batter will be lumpy. DON'T over mix.
  • Folding in blueberries.
    5
    Fold in blueberries, giving the batter a stir or two.
  • Batter poured into tins and sprinkled with coarse sugar.
    6
    Pour batter into tins filling all the way up to just under the top of the muffin tin edge. Sprinkle with coarse sugar.
  • Blueberry pumpkin muffins baking.
    7
    Bake at 425 for 5 mins. Reduce the heat to 375 and bake for 25 mins or until golden brown.
  • Blueberry Pumpkin Southern Comfort Muffin cut in half.
    8
    The heat burst at the beginning is going to make those muffin tops rise up nice and high. Enjoy!
