Happy Tuesday =) It's not Recipe Club day, but I am sharing a recipe. I don't know about you, but Blueberry muffins bring me right back to my childhood. The smell of them reminds me of Sunday mornings waking up to them. I can't tell you the last time I made them. It must have been years ago. The other day, Alyx came home from daycare telling me she had a blueberry muffin that day. She is the pickiest eater ever, and I thought there is no way you ate a blueberry muffin kid! ha! So I texted our daycare lady, and sure enough she told me Alyx ate the entire thing! So I called my mom up and asked her for her recipe she uses. This recipe is really old. And it's delicious!
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 1/2 cups blueberries
- Equal mixture of white sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon mixed together. About 1/2 cup.
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin; or line the tin with papers, and grease the papers.
- In a medium-sized bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until well combined.
- Add the eggs one at a time, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl and beating well after each addition.
- Beat in the baking powder, salt, and vanilla.
- Add the flour alternately with the milk, beating gently just to combine. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl.
- Add the blueberries to the batter, stirring just to combine and distribute.
- Scoop the batter by the heaping 1/4-cupful into the prepared muffin pan; a muffin scoop works well here.
- Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of the sugar mixture atop each muffin, if desired. It's traditional — go for it!
- Bake the muffins for about 30 minutes, until they're light golden brown on top, and a toothpick inserted into the middle of one of the center muffins comes out clean.
- Remove the muffins from the oven, loosen their edges from the pan, and after about 5 minutes transfer them to a rack to cool.
- Yield: 12 muffins.And I totally failed to get a picture of them when they came out of the oven. They are so fluffy and full of flavor. Alyx LOVED them!
If you try them, I hope you will enjoy them as much as we do =)Linking up today with the ladies of Tuesday Talk.Beth at Our Pretty Little Girls | Pinterest | Facebook | InstagramCrystal at Hall Around Texas | Pinterest | Facebook | InstagramJessica at Sweet Little Ones | Pinterest | Facebook | InstagramStefanie at Lexie Loo, Lily, Liam, & Dylan Too | Pinterest | Facebook | InstagramStephanie at Wife Mommy Me | Pinterest | Facebook | InstagramLindsay at Lindsay's Sweet World | Pinterest | Facebook | InstagramSarah at Sarah E.
