To Die For Blueberry Muffins
These muffins are really, really good; especially the next day. I baked these late morning ate one still warm from the oven and wasn’t amazed, just thought they were okay. Then my husband had one that night and even though he is not a muffin guy said they were really good and ended up eating two. So I gave it another try and ate one the next morning and wow was I impressed. I had to force myself to eat just one they were so good. I did make a few minor changes based on other reviewer’s recommendations: I added 1 tsp. vanilla to the muffin batter and used brown sugar for half the amount called for in the topping. I only had frozen blue berries and I used closer to 1 ½ c. – the frozen berries turned the batter a purple color but I was surprised and pleased to find once baked the color wasn’t very strong. In the future I’ll try the recipe with fresh berries but frozen still taste great. I was able to make 9 generous muffins by filling regular sized muffins cups to practically the top and you do get that pretty and delicious mounded muffin top. I too had a lot of extra crumb topping, probably enough to make a triple batter of the dough. All in all a great recipe that makes me anxious to show off at the next brunch or morning meeting I’m invited to! - I need to ammend my original post. I ran across fresh blue berries so I made another batch and I must say if they'e really good with frozen, they're 10 times better with fresh! I also cut the topping in half an used margerine
