  5. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then gradually add the milk and vanilla extract, mixing until well incorporated.
  6. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined—be careful not to overmix!
  7. Gently fold in the blueberries, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
