Enjoy the flavor of Lemon and Blueberry with these Lemon Blueberry Muffins. Tangy lemon muffins frosted with sweet Blueberry Philadelphia Cream Cheese are the perfect start {or end} to your day!
I had a hard time deciding whether I should refer to these as muffins or cupcakes. These Lemon Blueberry Muffins are better for you than a cupcake.
But because they are topped with a delicious Philly Cream Cheese frosting, they could pass for a cupcake too.
I decided that they would be muffins . . . that way I could eat them for breakfast!
These Lemon Blueberry Muffins are super easy to make. Perfect for a quick weekend breakfast or brunch.
Tart lemon shines in the muffins. The lemon flavor is not timid. But the tartness is a fantastic contrast to the sweet blueberry cream cheese topping.
The cream cheese topping is no trouble at all. Simply mix Blueberry Philadelphia Cream Cheese with powdered sugar for the creamy and flavorful muffin frosting!
I’ve never been a huge fan of muffins. Maybe they just needed a little Cream Cheese Topping to win me over!

March 28, 2015 atHi!
I must say I was thrilled to find this recipe because lemon flavored anything is my favorite. However they came out more on the sour than tart/tangy side. I’m not sure if I put too much lemon (instead of measuring 6 tablespoons I just juiced 2 large lemons). I’m going to try it again and actually measure the juice this time. For what it’s worth they’re still pretty good. I ate 1 and a half and the husband had 1 fresh from the cooling rack last night. We’ll eat the rest with breakfast this morning. 🙂
Nicole Harris says
April 1, 2015 atOh no. Well, I hope they turn out more to your liking the second time around. I love tart and tangy 😀

April 2, 2015 atHi again
I tweaked the recipe. What works (for my taste anyway) was 1.5 lemons and I added some fresh blueberries to the mixture. They were HEAVENLY! Cheers and thanks for posting this recipe!

August 1, 2015 atIt cooked on outside not inside and was sour. It might be my mistake but i think it has too much liquid.

August 10, 2015 atThanks for the feedback. I’ll have to make these again soon as a test. I haven’t made them for quite awhile. Sorry the recipe did not work out for you.
