Blueberry Muffins Recipe

After a long power outage, the first thing that I wanted was home cooked yummy baked goods.  I decided to use my slightly frozen blueberries to make muffins.  It was a great after dinner treat and a great way to clear out the freezer to make my freezer nice and clean. 

The batter looks a little purple from all the berries but it still cooks up to a nice pretty white muffin.

The batter usually makes 16 muffins which I normally forget and fill my two 6 muffin cups and then I have to get creative with the remaining batter.  I decided on a coffee cake and made a strudel to go on top from the recipe that I used on the pumpkin bread the other day.  Strangely, the topping sank to the bottom of the pan.  I was a little worried about how it was going to turn out when I saw that it was not really on the top of the cake as I expected.... we just decided it was upside down cake.  It was still super yummy so even failures are yummy in baking.

This is a recipe that I got from my mom ages ago and it is the recipe that I always use for blueberry muffins.  I will write the recipe so that other people can understand it since my mom's recipe is written a little strange and most people don't follow recipes with her directions... I have had years of training.  I hope that you enjoy too!!
