Prepare Cupcakes
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In another bowl, cream the softened butter until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, vanilla extract, buttermilk, and lemon zest, mixing until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.
Prepare Frosting
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest, mixing until smooth and fluffy.
- Once the cupcakes are completely cool, frost them with the lemon frosting using a spatula or piping bag.

Notes
For best results, use fresh blueberries and allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
