Double Blueberry Muffins
Once in awhile, it’s nice to bust out the KitchenAid and make a nice batch of sweets! Due to an impulse buy at Costco, I purchased a big box of fresh blueberries. I love to just snack on them, but I didn’t want to have a blueberry overdose. So I thought it would be nice to make some blueberry muffins. I relied on a recipe from The Food Network for Double Blueberry Muffins. It sounded perfect because I wanted to add as many berries in there as possible. I think it turned out pretty good, considering my friend Cecille couldn’t resist eating them! Hehe.
Cream 1 stick of softened butter in the mixer until smooth. Then add 1 cup of sugar and mix. Add 2 eggs, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 2 tsp baking powder, and 1/4 tsp salt and mix.
In a shallow bowl, mash 3/4 cup of fresh blueberries with the back of a fork. Add to the batter and mix. With the mixer running at low speed, add 2 cups of flour and 1/2 cup of milk (a little bit of each at a time).
Fold in another 1 3/4 cups of blueberries by hand until well mixed. Then, fill the muffin tins (here I used silicone muffin cups) to 3/4 full. Sprinkle some cinnamon and sugar on top and bake until golden brown, about 25-30 minutes.
Be sure to let the muffins cool at least 30 minutes before biting into them. It's nice to have fresh blueberries on hand! Be sure to make some of these muffins when you get a chance. They will make your heart smile.

Aw thanks Sherrill! I think we made these the day you guys left. I wanted to make it earlier to share with everyone, but didn’t have enough time!! NEXT TIME!!
ugh i ate like all of them…stop leaving fresh baked goods out on the counter–summer is approaching!
Wow…looks delicious. I think I can eat all the 3 in one sitting….with coffee of course
Mmm delicious. You could make them TRIPLE blueberry muffins and stud some candied ones on top
Oh boo now I want morning tea and I have no double blueberry muffins lying around.
Your muffins sound delicious! Thanks for sharing
Fabulous! I just got a huge amount of blueberries and would definitely be making these scrumptious muffins!
I can never have enough blueberries in my muffins, I really love them! Your muffins are gorgeous! =)
I LOVE blueberry muffins. What a delicious treat.
Blueberry is my favorite muffin!
The hardest part of this recipe is trying to wait 30 mins after baking to devouring them all!
these look delicious! i love the smell of fresh muffins coming right out of the oven. they may be hot but i just can’t resist gobbling one or two down right then
Andy – good point, but when we ate them before the cool-down period, we noticed they tasted kinda doughy, or like flour. Best to let the muffins settle in and get all yummified. They are great the next morning with coffee!
Those muffins look so tasty! The last time I ate fresh blueberries was this last summer when someone told me that eating them would send me into labor. It didn’t work, but the berries were still delicious! I need to go buy more fresh berries! Thanks for the idea and thanks for stopping by my blog!
