With near freezing temperatures this morning, it seemed a good time to stay indoors and bake some muffins. Gio knelt vigil at the oven for the entire 18 minutes of baking.
I used to make these muffins when I a teenager to sell at a local farmers' market each summer. Here is my "world famous" blueberry muffin recipe...
makes 12 muffins
1 c. sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1/4 c. softened butter
1 c. milk
1 egg
1 1/3 c. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp. salt
1 c. fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed and drained)
Cream butter and sugar. Add egg, milk, 2/3 c. flour, b. powder, spices, vanilla & salt. Mix until well blended. Gently mix in rest of flour, leaving batter lumpy. Fold in berries. Spoon into muffin tins. Sprinkle tops with sugar- as much as you dare! Bake in well buttered/oiled muffin tins 20-30 minutes at 375 F (or, in our very hot oven here in Kiev, at 190 C for 18 min!). Cool or wire racks. Enjoy!
