Buttermilk blueberry muffin recipe???

[Kristianna]

I am looking for a good blueberry muffin recipe. It doesn't even have to be a recipe that includes buttermilk. I have tried so many recipes and they just aren't *great*.

Anyone have one to share?

Thanks!

I got this from another site, don't know which one...

Favorite Blueberry Muffins


6 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 cups Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 to 2 cups blueberries, either fresh or frozen, wild Maine berries preferred
1 tablespoon sugar mixed with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Grease 12 muffin cups generously; a vegetable oil pan spray works well.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until they're light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, and beat well. Stir in the milk and vanilla. mixing only until smooth. Quickly stir in the berries.

Fill the muffin cups 3/4 to almost full, using all of the batter. Sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar. Bake the muffins for 30 minutes, until they're light golden brown, remove them from the oven, and place the pan on a rack to cool for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, run a knife around the edge of one muffin, and try to lift it out of the pan. (These muffins are very tender, and if they don't cool long enough, they'll crumble when you try to remove them from the pan.) If the muffin lifts out of the pan without crumbling, remove all of the muffins and cool them completely on a wire rack. If the muffin sticks or the top peels off, allow them to cool an additional 10 minutes, then try again. Yield: 12 to 14 muffins.

p.s. 2 cups berries make a crumbly muffin, using less is fine...

YUMMY ON THE TUMMY ! ! ! ! That sounds so delicious. Makes me miss Alaska's interior even more. We used to pick gallons and gallons of blueberries, then cover them with honey to store for the winter, or longer. I was just talking with a woman a few days ago about berries. She said she *only* picks about 10 gallons of blueberries a year. Poor thing. She must feel deprived ;D
