Tips

• For an even distribution of blueberries, toss them in a little flour before adding them to the batter
• If you’re using frozen blueberries, be sure to thaw them first and drain any excess liquid. Using frozen blueberries may also result in a longer baking time.
• Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
• You can also freeze the muffins for up to two months.
