Tasty Thursday: Do You Know The Muffin Man?

Scratch that, do you know the Muffin WOMAN?!  It would be me.  I made these night before last.  I’ve been craving some homemade blueberry muffins and thought I should just get in the kitchen and make them.  What better reason than Tasty Thursday?  This is the final product (yum-o!) with directions below.

Ingredients

½ c softened butter

1 c sugar

2 eggs, beaten

½ c milk

2 c flour

2 tsp baking powder

½ tsp salt

1 tsp cinnamon

¼ tsp nutmeg

2 c blueberries (frozen are fine)

2 tbl sugar

Set oven to 375 degrees.  Cream together butter and sugar.  Combine beaten eggs and milk to creamed mixture (looks soupy at this point).  In a separate bowl combine dry ingredients and add slowly to the creamed mixture.  Fold in blueberries.  Fill muffin cups 2/3 full.  Add sugar to top of each muffin.  Bake for 20 minutes.

Variations:  I used ½ frozen ½ fresh blueberries.  I didn’t have nutmeg so I omitted.  I used wheat flour in place of white flour.
