Blueberry Muffins


This muffin is not sweet, and so simple to make.  Simple ingredients, and almost no mess.

Oven: 400 degrees    Cooking Time:  20 minutes     Makes: 15-18 regular size muffins
Ingredients:
1 1/2 c all-purpose flour
1 1/2 c bread flour
2 tblsp cornstarch
1 1/2 c sugar
1 1/2 tblsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3 large eggs (beaten)
1 1/3 cup milk
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
4 oz melted butter
1 1/2 c blueberries (rinsed and dry)

Procedure:
Before getting your hands into the mix, preheat your oven to 400 degrees.  It takes approximately 15 minutes for your oven to reach the desired temperature.  These are simple steps, you will be saying Poom, Poom, Pow, Done!
Mix and sift all your dry ingredients.


Mix all your wet ingredients, including the melted butter.

Combine dry and wet ingredients.  Mix just to incorporate.  Do not over mix.  Batter will be lumpy and it is OK!


Add your blueberries.  I'm adding frozen blueberries. Just add the blueberries without overmixing.  I mean toss them in, and stir one full circle.  Put down the spatula, trust me.

  I love the smell of blueberries when they are cooked.  If you do not like blueberries, you can substitute for your favorite.  The key point here is to awake your taste buds and inspire your imagination.

I use a 2 oz ice cream scoop to fill my pans.  Use liners for easy clean up.  Do not waste any time, put the pans in the oven as fast as you can.  Your kitchen will smell fantastic, your imagination will start flowing, and sooner than you think you will be planning your next baking moment.

Once your muffins are done, remove them from the pan and place on a cooling rack. 
Go ahead and eat one, WARNING...blueberries will be Hot!

Enjoy!
