Blueberry Muffins

Description

I have been working on and tweaking my blueberry muffin recipe in order to make the perfect blueberry muffin. I think I have finally done it. These are sooo delicious (and easy)! They are packed FULL of blueberries. They are moist in the middle and have a wonderful crispy top from the sprinkled sugar.   Freshly baked muffins in the morning is hard to beat. Both fresh and frozen blueberries work wonderfully! Happy Spring and Happy Baking!
