Best Blueberry Muffins: A healthy breakfast muffin



This Recipe came from my Aunty Jane.  We lost her 6 years ago and I miss her terribly still. I grew up in awe of her baking and cooking skills. And as I got older I got a few recipes from her. I wish I'd got more! 

Here is one of the recipes she made for is kids when we came up to her farm! I have modified it to make it more healthy but you would never know! The kids tried it this afternoon and were smacking their lips! 

I have used the base of this recipe in so many different muffin recipes just change the berry or extract and it's a whole new muffin!

Crackle Berry Muffins





This Recipe came from my Aunty Jane.  We lost her 6 years ago and I miss her terribly still. I grew up in awe of her baking and cooking skills. And as I got older I got a few recipes from her. I wish I'd got more! 

Here is one of the recipes she made for is kids when we came up to her farm! I remember going up to the fish farm at Easter time and she would have a big batch of these made topped with sprinkled sugar.  She always made the best baked goods and I think my love of baking comes from her.  I have modified the recipe to make it more healthy but you would never know because they still taste amazing!
