INGREDIENTS

½ cup softened butter

1 ¼ cups sugar

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups flour

½ teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons baking powder

½ cup milk

2 cups blueberries, washed, drained and


picked over

3 teaspoons sugar

Add to Your Grocery List

PREPARATION

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375.

Step 2
Cream the butter and 1 1/4 cups sugar until light.

Step 3
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after
each addition. Add vanilla.

Step 4
Sift together the flour, salt and baking powder, and
add to the creamed mixture alternately with the
milk.

Step 5
Crush 1/2 cup blueberries with a fork, and mix
into the batter. Fold in the remaining whole
berries.

Step 6
Line a 12 cup standard muffin tin with cupcake
liners, and fill with batter. Sprinkle the 3 teaspoons
sugar over the tops of the muffins, and bake at
375 degrees for about 30-35 minutes.

Step 7
Remove muffins from tin and cool at least 30
minutes. Store, uncovered, or the muffins will be
too moist the second day, if they last that long.

Toss the berries in flour before adding, to keep
them from sinking to the base of the muffin.

The original John Pupek recipe, which I have
used for years, calls for 1 cup of sugar, 1/4
tsp.salt, and he includes 1 tsp. vanilla as well. I
don't know why the recipe above makes the
salt optional. Salt is used in cooking as a flavor
enhancer, and if it is left out of baked goods,
the final product will not taste right.
