Lemon Blueberry Muffins have a rich history dating back to the early 19th century when blueberries were first cultivated in the United States.

Chefs and home cooks alike have put their own spin on this timeless recipe, with variations ranging from traditional to innovative. Today, these delectable muffins can be found in bakeries and cafes across the globe, but some of the best versions can be savored in the quaint bakeries of New England, where fresh blueberries are abundant.

For a unique twist, some bakers incorporate Greek yogurt for added moisture and a hint of tanginess. Whether enjoyed for breakfast or as a delightful snack, Lemon Blueberry Muffins continue to captivate taste buds with their irresistible blend of citrus and berry goodness.
