Easy Blueberry Muffins

We had some blueberries in the fridge that I was afraid would go bad, so I decided to make some blueberry muffins. I found this super easy recipe in my "500 Best Muffin Recipes" cookbook (yes, that's really the name).

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup softened butter
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
3/4 cup milk
1 1/2 cups blueberries

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease muffin tin or line with paper cups.

In large bowl, mix together flour, baking powder and salt. Make a well in the center.

In another bowl (or in your mixer), cream together butter and sugar, then beat in eggs one at a time. Gradually stir in milk. (The mixture may look curdled, but don't be alarmed - it's normal.) Pour into the flour mixture and stir just until moistened. Gently fold in blueberries.

Spoon batter into prepared muffin tin, filling cups to the top. Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of a muffin comes out clean and dry.

These were so easy and made the house smell great! I may make another batch tomorrow to freeze.
