Instructions (5 steps)

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line 12 standard muffin tins with liners, parchment or simply spray with nonstick spray; set aside.
2. Whisk flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a small bowl; set aside.
3. Whisk light brown sugar, eggs and ¾ cup sugar in a large bowl. Whisk in buttermilk and butter. Using a spatula, stir the flour mixture into the buttermilk mixture until well combined– a few bits of visible flour are okay (be gentle and don’t overmix).
4. Fold in about two cups of blueberries until well distributed. Divide among prepared muffin tins and top with remaining blueberries. Sprinkle each muffin with a good amount of sugar and bake until nicely golden brown, significantly puffed up and baked through, 17–20 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack or just on the counter at room temperature.
5. DO AHEAD: Muffins can be made a few days ahead, stored wrapped and at room temperature (I like them best the next day, honestly).
