Regular plain-old blueberry muffins. Good eatin'.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 1/4 cups white sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups all purpose flour, divided
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1 pint (2 cups) blueberries
- 2 Tablespoons sugar
I Am the Muffin Man
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray muffin cups with cooking spray, or line with paper cups.
In a large bowl, cream the butter, 1 1/4 cups sugar and the salt until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time until smooth and fluffy.
In a small bowl, put 1 1/2 cups of the blueberries and 1/4 cup flour, and toss to coat.
In another bowl, mix together 1 3/4 cups flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder. Add the dry mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, and beat just until mixed.
Crush the remaining 1/2 cup of the blueberries, and stir into the batter.
Fold the flour-coated blueberries into the batter. Spoon evenly into 12 muffin cups, and sprinkle tops with sugar.
Bake 25-30 minutes, until golden brown and the tops spring back when touched lightly.
Notes and Hints and Stuff
- Can I Make These Ahead?
These actually freeze pretty well. If you want to make them ahead and "rejuvinate" them for
a gathering, freeze them in sealed containers, and when you serve them, pop them in the
microwave for a few seconds.
