Ingredients
To make these delicious blueberry muffins, you will need the following ingredients: one box of cake mix (any flavor of your choice), one-third cup of vegetable oil, two eggs, one cup of fresh blueberries, and one-third cup of milk.
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a muffin tin by spraying it with cooking spray. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and milk. Mix the ingredients together until they are well combined. Gently fold in the blueberries. Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, fill the muffin cups with the batter until it is about three-quarters full.
Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool for about five minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Serve warm with butter or cream cheese if desired.

Tips and Tricks
For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter. You can also try adding other types of berries such as raspberries or blackberries. If you want a sweeter muffin, you can add a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the batter. If you don’t have any fresh blueberries, you can use frozen blueberries instead.
