Sift dry ingredients together (flour, baking powder, salt) then fold in using a rubber spatula alternating with the room temperature milk, finishing with the dry ingredients.
In a small bowl, mix vinegar with baking soda. It will be super bubbly, fold into the muffin batter quickly then fold in half of the blueberries.

Notes

INGREDIENT NOTES

All ingredients must be at room temperature to properly emulsify: eggs, butter, milk.
You might be able to make more or less mini muffins with this recipe, depending on the size of your mini muffin tin cavities. Mine has 24

TECHNIQUE NOTES

Digital scale is required for a consistent, happy baking experience:)
Do not overwork the muffin batter, after the wet ingredients are whipped up, switch to a rubber spatula to incorporate the dry ingredients
Always pre-heat your oven and consider using a digital oven thermometer for the best results
Make sure to properly grease your mini muffin tin with butter so the muffins can easily pop out after baking
Baking this muffin takes 13 minutes in my oven however focus on the texture, not the time. Apply the toothpick check (it should come out clean) to avoid muffin underbaked, however do not over bake them as that would result in a dry texture
