\"blueberrymuffins\"<\/p>\n

Did you know that the blueberry muffin is Minnesota’s official muffin!?!\u00a0 Some third graders wanted to see if they could get a law passed and they did so\u00a0the state got its official muffin in 1988 (State Handbook & Guide website<\/a>).\u00a0 So last week I was driving by the Brennan’s Market<\/a> on University Ave. in Madison and I saw a sign for 10 lb. boxes of Michigan blueberries.\u00a0 At $25.99 per box (about $2.60 \/lb), I thought it was a steal for this super food.\u00a0 Yep, that’s right, most of if went into the freezer!\u00a0 As you may remember from my Bure’s Berry Patch post<\/a>, I’m a little obsessed about freezing produce (not just any produce, great produce) to save for the winter.\u00a0 The berries were gorgeous, succulent, and sweet with each as big around of a penny.\u00a0 Anyway, I had about a pint left of unfrozen berries that were going to go bad soon so I decided to make some muffins.\u00a0 I used a recipe called “To Die For Blueberry Muffins”<\/a> from Allrecipes<\/a> with some slight modifications.\u00a0 I can never follow a recipe to the point.\u00a0 Keith thinks it’s because I’m just THAT stubborn.\u00a0 I like to think of it as creativity \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 When he likes something that I make, he gets a little\u00a0 sad because he will never taste it the same way again.\u00a0 Who wants to eat the same thing over and over again?\u00a0 That’s sooo boring.\u00a0 Plus, I don’t think anything can be recreated exactly as it was before unless it’s made in a factory.\u00a0 Right?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

RECIPE<\/a><\/p>\n

*I decided to add a couple hand fulls of oats then added a splash more of milk.\u00a0 I used less sugar and I did not put any cinnamon in for the topping (it takes away from the star of the show).\u00a0 Oh, and I used an entire pint of blueberries instead of the recommended 1 cup.\u00a0 The eggs I used were from the Jelle farm.<\/p>\n

Outcome:<\/p>\n

The muffins came out perfect.\u00a0 Not too sweet, buttery and crunchy on top.\u00a0 The crumb was not too soft or cake-like which I dislike in a lot of muffins.<\/p>\n
