Recipe for Blueberry Muffins

/

There is nothing more comforting than the smell of freshly baked goods drifting throughout my house in the morning. I wanted to share a simple blueberry muffin recipe that you can make with your rascals.

When the blueberries have gotten too soft to eat fresh but are still full of fruity flavor, they are perfect for baking.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of blueberries

  • 1 ¾ cups of flour

  • ½ cup of milk

  • ¼ cup of vegetable oil

  • 1 egg

  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

  • ¼ cup of sugar

  • 2 teaspoon of baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon of salt

  • powered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat over to 375F. Grease or line muffin tins

  2. Lightly beat together milk, oil, egg and vanilla in a small bow.

  3. In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, the baking powder, and salt. Add blueberries.

  4. Mix together the wet & dry ingredients with a spatula, carefully folding the mixture together without mashing the blueberries.

  5. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, about 25 minutes.

  6. Cool 10 minutes in pan then transfer muffins to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powered sugar if desired.

The unmistakable scent of a freshly baked muffin will bring your rascals out of bed. These fast, simple, and not too sweet muffins are perfect for weekend mornings.
