I have a couple of solutions that work well. I always spray my paper cups with cooking spray before putting in the batter. Before I add my blueberries to the batter, I coat them with a tablespoon or so of flour. This prevents them from sinking to the bottom and prevents them from "bleeding" into the batter.
