Blueberry Muffins
I tried several blueberry muffin recipes, before coming up with this one. I noticed that recipes for blueberry muffins in old cookbooks have about half the amount of sugar as modern cookbooks and recipes. So I compromised, so the muffins aren’t too sweet or sour. However, if your blueberries are super sweet, you may want to use 1/2 cup of sugar, and if the berries are tart, I would use a whole cup of sugar. This is a delicious recipe for the perfect blueberry muffin. I like to get up early to make these wonderful little muffins for my family. They are very moist and packed with blueberry goodness.
