Blueberry Muffins
Blueberry Muffin Recipes
This page features two straightforward variations that emphasize fresh ingredients and easy preparation.
Crumb-Topped Delight - The first recipe is a classic take with a sweet crumb topping that adds a crunchy contrast to the soft muffins.
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Start by creaming the sugar and margarine until fluffy, then beat in the egg.
Alternate adding the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, salt) with the milk, stir in the vanilla, and gently fold in the blueberries.
Fill greased muffin tins two-thirds full, sprinkle on the crumb topping, and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and a toothpick
comes out clean. This yields 12 muffins and can even be adapted for a 9x13-inch pan, baking for 35 minutes.
The second recipe is even more minimalist, perfect for beginners.
Preheat to a hotter 425 degrees. Combine the dry ingredients, make a well in the center, pour in the milk-egg mixture, and stir quickly
until just combined. Add the sweetened blueberries, fill tins two-thirds full, and top with granulated sugar. Bake starting at 20
minutes, checking frequently since no exact time is specified.
