Soft, crumbly muffins with bursts of sweet blueberries in every bite - what better way to greet Spring?
I feel like it has been ages since I last posted for you.
Life has been hectic lately. We have been planning a lot of posts and we are sharing them all this week, so prepare your inbox for a foodie overload 😉
To get the party started, I am sharing these Easy Blueberry Muffins adapted from Margaret of Tea and Scones. Margaret has a truly delightful blog with an array of wonderful recipes. Mom had been craving blueberries now that the weather is beginning to finally warm up and then, Margaret posted these. It was all too perfect, and soon my very first SRC post was falling right into place.
All morning the house smelled like sweet blueberries! Spring is definitely in the air, I can literally smell it. I cannot wait to get outside now that the days are getting longer, and I eagerly anticipate seeing the tulips and rose bushes bloom. Enjoy!

Big Daddy Dave says
Tammy, I love blueberries and I especially love blueberry muffins! Your version looks great... Commercially, the best muffins we've ever eaten were in the Boston area. We don't bake too much at home because then there is a tendency to hog out! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
