Blueberry Muffins


I’ve always enjoyed ordering blueberry (and really, any kind of berry-flavoured) muffins at local cafés.

This recipe will offer you a fresh alternative when you want to bake your own. With only a 10-minute prep and a 20-minute bake time, these soft treats are as good as any muffins you’ll buy.

If you’re looking to make more, just double the recipe to get 2 dozen. Plus, you can freeze some of them for later.
