Blueberry Muffins

These muffins are light and delicious and can be served warm or cold. They also freeze well. They are also simple to make. I'm still on a silicone kick and this time I used silicone cupcake cups. They worked great. Not as quick and easy to clean as the silicone pan was but of course you have to clean each individual cup. 

I confess that I did not use fresh blueberries. I had some in the freezer and they worked fine in the recipe. Be sure that the berries are dried properly before incorporating them into your flour mixture! 

1 cup fresh blueberries
1 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
2 TBS. unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup milk
Finely grated rind of 1 medium-sized lemon

The full recipe is available here.


      
Combing the blueberries with flour with keep them from sinking to the bottom of the muffins.









Fill the muffin forms about 2/3 full.
