Lemon and blueberry muffins are a delicious bakery product that has become popular in many parts of the world. Their origin dates back to the English tradition of preparing small individual cakes baked in muffin tins, known since the 18th century. In Latin America, these muffins may vary in their name depending on the country: in Mexico and much of Central America they are simply known as "muffins," while in countries like Argentina and Chile they are often called "magdalenas," although with some differences in the traditional preparation.
The use of lemon and blueberries gives this recipe a contrast between sweet and sour that is highly appreciated. Blueberries, native to North America, provide that juicy and fresh touch, while the lemon zest perfumes and balances the flavor. This combination has gained ground in the bakeries and homes of several countries, becoming an ideal option for breakfasts, snacks, or light desserts.
