Fresh Blueberry Muffins

To me, a good muffin is moist, fluffy, and full of flavor. Nobody likes a dry muffin! I’ve experimented with so many muffin base recipes, and this one really is my favorite. It’s deliciously light, the muffins remain moist days later when left at room temperature, and there is definitely some good flavor packed inside. We absolutely love these and so do our customers at the farm store!

Do you love the little brown paper I used as liners? It’s actually just a brown parchment paper that I cut in half, folded around the bottom of a half-pint jar, and placed in the muffin tin. Super easy!

Let me know if you plan to bake these and how they turned out for you!
