One of my favorite thing about blueberries is that you can make them into blueberry muffins, sweet yummy little things that make you forget you are on a diet. So, I made some muffins today with the berries picked by my mother who woke up at 6am to pick them. Personally, I think it is still a little too early for blueberry picking, since the berries were rather sour and small, but regardless they are still great when baked with fat and sugar~
We got the recipe from the blueberry picking place and it called for:
eggs -------------- 2
sugar ------------- 1/2 cup
oil/butter ----------1/2 cup
sifted flour -------- 3 cups
baking powder --- 1and 1/2 tablespoon
salt --------------- 1 teaspoon
blueberries --------1 and 1/2 cup
The steps are fairly simple:
1. mix eggs, sugar and oil/butter.
2. slowly mix in the sifted flour baking powder and salt until everything is pretty much even.
3. put in the blueberries!
4. bake for 20-23min in 400 F degrees
5. voila!
Here are some pictures of our blueberry muffins :D
On a side note, they were not as sweet as most people would like, so adding sugar is advised to those who like their muffins to be a little sweeter.
Enjoy!
Bwahaha, so true about the watermelon and papaya.
ReplyDeleteThose muffins look delicious. I bet the sour blueberry-ness couples with the sweet muffin-ness pretty well. :P
