Summers are the best time to get fresh and delicious blueberries. I love their flavor in cakes and muffins so when I find a bag of fresh blueberries in my local store, the first thing that came to my mind was to make muffins. After going through a few different recipes on the net, I made these muffins and loved the caramelized berries in the soft and moist muffins. You can adjust the quantity of blueberries between 1/2 a cup to 1 cup depending on how much you like them.
I love making muffins and cup cakes and already posted Orange cup cakes and beautiful and delicious Strawberry cup cakes recipes. But these blue berry muffins are now my new favorites.
