what you'll need:
- for topping:
- 1 1/2 cups blueberries
- 3/4 cups sugar
- 1 Tbsp. water or lemon juice
- for batter:
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 Tbsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 cup milk
- 4 Tbsp. melted butter
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- preheat oven to 400*
- spray muffin tin with nonstick spray and place in oven to get warm
mix blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice or water in a pot on medium heat
continue mixing until blueberries pop, about 10 minutes. set aside to cool
in a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder
remove muffin tin and add blueberry mix
in a small bowl, combine melted butter, egg, milk, and vanilla
combine butter and flour mixture. don't over-stir
top blueberry mix with batter
bake for about 10-14 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean
like I said, maybe not so pretty, but still pretty tasty!
Side note:
- I think preheating the pan was a bad idea, as the nonstick spray I used kind of cooked itself, and I'm pretty sure that's why the blueberry topping did in fact stick to the pan
- Also, I used 1 cup all-purpose flour and 1 cup whole wheat
- If the blueberries don't seem to be popping, don't be afraid to help them along :)
