1

Prep your ingredients

Gather all the necessary ingredients for these muffins: - 2 cups all-purpose flour - 1 cup granulated sugar - 2 teaspoons baking powder - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda - 1/2 teaspoon salt - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted - 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt - 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, finely chopped - 1/4 cup blueberries - 2 large eggs - 1/2 cup sparkling wine (prosecco or champagne will work too) - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2

Mix the dry ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Make sure everything is well combined so you don't end up with clumps of flour in your muffins.

3

Combine the wet ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, Greek yogurt, basil, blueberries, eggs, sparkling wine, and vanilla extract. Mix until everything is well incorporated.

4

Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients

Gently add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, using a spatula or wooden spoon to fold them together. Be careful not to overmix, as that can lead to dense muffins. It's okay if there are a few lumps - they will disappear during baking.

5

Preheat the oven and prepare the muffin tin

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with cooking spray. This will prevent the muffins from sticking and make cleanup a breeze.

6

Fill the muffin cups

Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 of the way full. If you want larger muffins, you can fill them a bit more, but keep in mind that the baking time may need to be adjusted.

7

Bake and enjoy!

Pop the muffin tin into the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, grab a muffin, find a cozy spot, and enjoy the burst of basil and blueberry flavor!
