Blueberry Muffins

I love this recipe.  My favorite breakfast has to be blueberry muffins, scrambled eggs, and a big glass of orange juice.  Make this for your Sunday breakfast, you won’t be disappointed!

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 TBS and 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 c margarine, at room temperature
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 3 cups blueberries
  • 1/2 cup milk

Simple Steps:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.  Grease 12 regular-sized muffin tin.
  2. In a small bowl combine flour, baking powder, and salt.  Mix with a wisk.  *Baking Tip:  You can use a wisk rather than sifting dry ingredients.
  3. In a cup, mix 2 tablespoons of the sugar with the cinnamon and nutmeg.
  4. In medium-sized bowl, beat butter until creamy with an electric mixer on high.  Add the remaining 2/3 cup of sugar.  Add eggs one at a time, and vanilla, beating until light yellow and fluffy.
  5. Using a potato masher, mash 1 cup of the blueberries and stir them into the egg mixture.  Stir in the flour mixture, alternately with the milk, just until blended.  Fold in the remaining 2 cups of whole blueberries.  Fill each muffin cup almost full, then sprinkle with the spiced sugar.
  6. Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown.  Cool the muffins in the pan on a rack for 5 minutes.
  7. Enjoy!
