I feel like everyone should have their own Blueberry Muffin recipe from scratch don’t you?
And trust me I grew up on the kind from the packets (which I am not ashamed to say I still use when I am in a pinch). I also remember licking bowl after my mom was done with it. And that was my extent of helping her in the kitchen.
I know I posted a recipe for muffins just a couple of months ago. But what can you say? I love them!
And so do my kids. I feel like at any moment one of my kids could turn into a blueberry ball like Violet Beauregarde from Willy Wonka from eating so many blueberries. When blueberries are not on sale they cost about $6.99/container we could easily end up spending $14-21 a week on these things. Crazy isn’t it? I think it’s time to grow my own.
Now I probably should have done a blueberry pancake recipe before I did a blueberry muffin one because that is John Grayson’s favorite thing to eat. Well it’s a close tie between that cheese dip and cake. Ha! So I’ll get to working on it.
What about yall? What’s your go to breakfast? You think it will be these Blueberry Muffins?

When do you add the vegetable oil to the blueberry muffins?
Lynne Feifer says
Brenda, thank you so much for catching that! I’ve updated the recipe card.
It should be mixed in with the other wet ingredients in step 4 – eggs, milk, butter, oil, vanilla, and lemon zest.
