Muffin recipe..

[jebbypal]

Somehow, I don't know how, halcyon_shift has never had blueberry muffins. My culinary heart keens for her. Since she wants to bake (fire warning now for southern England) some, I told her I'd post the recipe. It's a basic one - if you know ways to dress them up, feel free to comment (doccy may not thank you though).

Blueberry muffins
Heat oven to 400 F (sorry, LD, you have to do the conversion). Grease a muffin pan (or if you are lazy like me, a 9x9 cake pan).

Mix 1 3/4 cup of all purpose flour with 1/3 cup of sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1/4 tsp salt. Make a well in the center and set aside.

Combine 1 beaten egg, 3/4 cup of milk, and 1/4 cup of butter/cooking oil. Add mixture all at once to flour mixture and stir just until moistened. Fold in 3/4 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries (or canned). Fill muffin cups 2/3 full (or put in pan). For muffins, bake 18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. For cake pan, bake 20-25 minutes.

Enjoy!

DIYA is lecturing me that blueberries aren't indigenous to England and therefore you do horrible things like putting raisins in your scones.

clearly, we need to inundate you with more *real* food.

*lol* We have blueberries, and they go in muffins. Raisins do indeed go in fruit scones, but I think our scones are a little different to yours - sweeter and not so dry.

And, see, this is why half my wishlist involved American food! They keep trying to feed me things that aren't 95% flavouring and preservatives. They are made of WRONG.

You did read the ingredients up there right? Nothing flavoring or preservatives...

Yeaah, but I decided it can count as one of my five daily recommend fruit portions *cough*
