Blueberry Muffins

Blueberries were on sale at Kroger so I decided to make blueberry muffins.

I was going to use the tried-and-true recipe from the Betty Crocker cookbook that mom always used, but then thought “What the hell, let’s try something different!” so used the recipe from Cook’s Illustrated (mom got me a CI cookbook I wanted for Christmas).

It made quite a large batch—I was going to use regular muffin wrappers in my large-size muffin pans (apparently I no longer own reglar-sized muffin tins), but after filling one paper I could tell that I had entirely too much filling for 12 small muffins—so went with 12 large muffins.

They were definitely edible, but honestly I thought they were simply 😐 (meh). Tom loved them. I apparently like my muffins much sweeter than he does…

  1. I don’t use Betty Crocker! I have a little booklet with bread/muffin recipes that I use. I’m sure I gave you a copy of it. It’s sort of in caligraphy. That one is the BEST!

  2. I swear one time you gave me the Betty Crocker recipe. It was a recipe from a 3-ring binder type cookbook. I have the same cookbook (I made sure to get the same one) and I swear that was it. Maybe you USED to use that one, and then graduated to a new recipe…??? I will have to look for the other cookbook!

  3. If I did, it was a LONG time ago!! I’ve been using this recipe for a long time. I’ll bring a copy of the book in case you can’t find yours!
