Blueberry Muffins

Blueberry Muffins

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 cup sugar
4 tbsp. unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
1 egg (beaten)
3/4 cup + 2 tbsp. milk
1 cup fresh blueberries

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt; stir in the sugar. In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, egg and milk. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and whisk together until blended but slightly lumpy. Add in the blueberries and give a slight stir until they are combined. Pour the batter evenly into the muffin pan and bake until golden and cooked thru, about 20-25 minutes. Carefully remove the muffins from the pan and transfer to a cooling rack. Serve.

*Johnna's tip: Warm muffins in the morning. There's nothing like it. Blueberry muffins are especially perfect because they can serve a large party at once alongside some other quick and easy breakfast items. Try alongside some mixed fresh fruit slices and your favorite cup of coffee.
