Best Blueberry Muffins

On my quest for several "best" recipes, I have also been seeking out a Blueberry Muffin Recipe that stands out among the rest.  Previous best recipe searches have uncovered my Best Granola RecipeBest Bran Muffin Recipe, and Best Vegan Cookie Recipe. I figure that if I'm blogging a traditional recipe such as this one, it should be my very favorite, right?

Well I can honestly tell you that these are the best Blueberry Muffins that you'll ever sink your teeth into.  After first tasting them at Communal in Provo, the chef graciously sent me his recipe and I've been enjoying them often.  Basically, anytime I can come up with an excuse to make them I do.  Friends visiting from out of town- bluebery muffins, birthday breakfast for a friend- blueberry muffins, baby shower brunch- blueberry muffins, oh wait is it snowing again today- blueberry muffins.  You get the idea.  They are that good!

This weekend we are expecting more snow, which means, maybe I'll be making another batch.  I might even try altering the recipe a bit for poppy seed muffins, we'll see.

Thanks to Joey, the chef at Communal for unlocking the secret to one of my favorite breakfast treats.

1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 to 25 min.

Weekend Credits
One of my tasks this weekend is to organize our big bookshelf.  After searching online for book shelf decor ideas, I found this fun video on Unclutter.

Love this wooden clock on etsy.  Daydreaming about how perfect it would look in our breakfast nook at home.

If you like Angry Birds, you'll love this video of a dad created a Angry Birds birthday cake for his boy.

Totally in awe over these beautiful water color paintings.  They remind me of my mother's sketches during her time in the fashion industry.  

Have a lovely weekend!

  8. Very nice blueberry muffins. I am partial to frozen blueberries when baking they seem to hold up a bit better than fresh.
