Incredible Blue Berry Muffins

Everything needed to make these blue berry muffins:

- 1 1/2 cup Flour

- 3/4 cup Sugar

- 1/2 t Salt

- 2 t Baking Powder

- 1/3 cup Vegetable Oil

- 1 Egg

- 1/3 cup Milk

- 1/3 cup Apple Sauce

- 1 t Vanilla Extract

- 1 cup Blueberries

- 2 Bowls, a Whisk, a Mixing Spoon, and Measuring Cups/Spoons

* This is basically the same recipe as the cranberry muffins. The main differences are the substitution of cranberries for blueberries, less sugar and no lemon zest.

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Greased Muffin Cups or line with muffin liners

2. Combine all the dry ingredients ( flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder). Mix together with a whisk.

3. In a separate bowl combine the vegetable oil, egg, milk, apple sauce, and vanilla extract. Whisk all together.

4. Carefully pour the liquid mixture of oil, egg, milk, etc into the dry ingredients. Gently mix until the flour is completely mix in (you don't want to over mix).

5. Fold in the blueberries

Fill the muffin tins about 3/4 the way to the top (I use a small ladle) and bake for 20-25 mins or until done. 

TIPS:

• Prep time is 15 mins and it should make about 8 large muffins

•  My oven gets unusually hot and I only cook my muffins for 15 minutes. Make sure to check on yours to know when they are done. They may be done sooner than you think

• Sometimes I like them plain with just some butter on top but for an amazing crumble topping here are the directions:

Mix 1/2 cup Sugar, 1/3 cup Flour, 1/4 cup Butter, and 1 1/2 t Ground Cinnamon together with a fork. Then sprinkle over the muffins before you put them in the oven.

These are incredibly easy to make and everyone will enjoy them! They are perfect for an after school snack or for an early morning breakfast. ENJOY
