Have you picked your own blueberries this summer? I picked 3 quarts at Lanni’s Orchard 2 weeks ago. Picking blueberries with my friend Silvia seemed like such a luxury. I’m so used to having a rigid schedule when I’m teaching or having a million things to do at home (including blogging). I found it so relaxing, rewarding, and just plain fun on a nice summer day!
These muffins were light and delicious! Go get yourself some blueberries and give these a try!
Blueberry Muffins

3 cups flour
1 3/4 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
2/3 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
2/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups blueberries
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 375° F. Prepare the muffin pans with cup cake liners.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder; set aside.
3. In a medium bowl, combine the oil, eggs, milk, and vanilla.
4. Add the liquid ingredients to the flour mixture and mix on low to medium speed until blended.
5. Fold in the blueberries carefully.
6. Fill 15 muffin cups evenly.
7. Bake for 18 - 25 minutes until a tooth pick inserted in the center comes out dry.
Makes 15 muffins.

I also just finished making some blueberry buttermilk ice cream-so good! I’ve stocked my freezer
with tons of blueberries for the winter, but I better ease off or they won’t last that long!

Mmm, blueberries! But I only like them baked in things, can’t stand them raw. =)

Beautiful muffins. Blueberries seem to add a special flavor to anything. I recently paired it with butternut squash and maple syrup and it turned out to be a favorite.

Some time ago, I needed to buy a good house for my business but I did not earn enough money and couldn’t order something. Thank God my fellow suggested to get the home loans at trustworthy creditors. Thus, I did so and was satisfied with my car loan.

I just made these and I have to admit that I was very worried because the batter was very thick but they turned out amazing!! I made about 20 muffins. Thank you!
Jane says
I’m glad you liked them, Kayla!
