Aunt Joanie's Blueberry Muffins
Still snowing in Cincy, for those of you keeping score this is the snowiest (is that a word?) February in history; and we are only at the 16th of the month. Over the weekend my phone beeped, my neighbor and friend was calling to see if he could stop by with some homemade blueberry muffins. Now this is a guy who prides himself a grill master but claims no skills at all in the kitchen. Long story short, he shows up with a basket full of steaming hot blueberry muffins.
Just looking at the muffins you could immediately tell they were not the standard mix the ingredients from a box muffins. Moist, full of berries, these breakfast treats will warm your bellies and your spirits on a cold, snowy morning. They wouldn’t be bad mid-summer either. Mark suggests using wild blueberries, he is from Vermont, and coarse sugar on top, but they are really great no matter where you got your berries. Mark claims they are his aunt Joanie’s recipe; wonder if he is holding back on any other of his aunt’s recipes?
