Assemble ingredients.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Sift dry ingredients together into a large bowl. Stir in the grated orange rind. Make a well in the centre of the ingredients. Set bowl aside.
In a 2-cup measuring cup or small bowl, beat eggs lightly. Add milk, orange juice, oil, and vanilla. Stir or whisk together well. Pour into well in dry ingredients. Stir just until most of the dry ingredients are incorporated.
Gently fold blueberries into batter. Do not overmix. This will create a tough muffin and one that has blue batter!
