Blueberry Muffins

 

I opened the fridge this morning to find an overflow of organic blueberries about to expire staring at me in the face. What better time to whip up a batch of blueberry muffins? Since this was not exactly planned (and my kids were surprisingly playing happily together at such an early morning hour) I peered into my pantry to see what ingredients I had on hand. 30 minutes later I can happily report this whimsical recipe is quite tasty! I must admit I tend to like my muffins on the less sweet side which allows me to be in control of the sweetness factor. If I’m in the mood for something sweeter I simply add some apple butter or good quality jelly.
