Super Blueberry Lemon Muffins


These muffins are wonderful!! They're the right balance of sweet, soft and fluffy, and I love the sugar coating on top. They're a serious treat in the morning!

Muffins
2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
Rind of 1 lemon
1 egg
1 cup milk
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Lemon Butter Topping
1/4 cup melted butter
2 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar


Muffins:
Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and lemon rind.

Beat egg; add milk and butter

Add egg mixture to dry ingredients. Stir until just mixed (batter will be lumpy). Stir in blueberries.

Fill muffin pans/liners 2/3 full.

Bake at 375F for 20 minutes.



Topping:
Combine melted bitter and lemon juice. Measure sugar in separate dish. Dunk tops of slightly cooled muffins into lemon butter and then sugar.

Makes 16 medium muffins.
