  • From Bluberry to Muffin in under an hour.

    Look at these beauties.!!

    My 1st ever Blueberries (varieties unknown), picked, washed, made into muffins.!

    Cor.
    Only 11 left now.!

    **********UPDATE**************
    The recipie i used, from a book!

    Blueberry Muffins
    Serves 12.

    125 g (4½ oz) Caster Sugar
    1 tbsp grated lemon zest
    265 g (9½ oz ) Plain Flour
    1 tbsp Baking Powder
    2 Lightly beaten eggs
    225 Ml (8 fl oz) Milk
    115g (4 oz) Unsalted Butter, Melted)
    1 tsp Vanilla Essence
    225 g (8 oz) Fresh or Thawed Blueberries.

    (My own notes, I dint have any lemon zest so added a squirt of lemon juice, it seemed fine, & I only had 6 oz blueberries..and this was perhaps a bit too much, in my view that is, make sure your milk is at room temp as when i added it to the melted butter it all started to clot up quite quickly.)


    Method.

    Preheat the oven to 200°c (400°F / Gas mark 6). Place 12 paper muffin cases in a muffin tin.

    In a medium bowl. stir the sugar, lemon zest, flour and baking powder with a spoon.

    In a large bowl, beat the eggs, milk, vanilla essence with an electric whisk (I dint have one) until smooth for about 1 minute.
    Add the dry ingredients and stir until the blueberries are just combined.
    Spoon the mixture in the the cases.

    Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

    All the best.

    Oh those look fab! I have had precisely two ripe blueberries from four small bushes so far, but your muffins are an inspiration

      You can equally well use raspberries, tayberries or blackcurrants. Ask me how I know!

                  Ya know- that reminded me of a breakfast we had in New York.
                  Nibbling away at a plateful of blueberry muffins we were watching peeps through the window in the opposite office block working out in a gym.
                  I know what I'd rather have been doing!!!!

                    1 left.

                    They actually tasted better 24 hours later, after they had settled a bit.

                    Yum.
