J's Blueberry Muffins

By janis-2

This is an adaptation from a recipe I found online for Jordan Marsh's blueberry muffins.
I doubled the recipe and they still came out great.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups unsifted flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
• 2 cups blueberries, rinsed and dried
• 2 T sugar (for the top of muffins)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375.

In a large bowl, cream together butter & sugar.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.

In a separate, smaller bowl, thoroughly combine flour, baking powder & salt.

Gradually add dry ingredients, milk & vanilla to the butter/sugar mixture.
Do this in 3 steps - add 1/3 of each (dry, milk, vanilla) and mix. Repeat 2 more times.

Add blueberries and gently stir by hand.

Put paper muffin cups in a 6 cup popover pan. Grease the top part of the cups that are not covered by paper. Fill the cups to the top which will be beyond the paper.
(alternative, use regular 12 cup muffin tin for smaller muffins).

Sprinkle sugar on top of the unbaked muffins.

Bake at 375 for 30 minutes. (25-30 for smaller muffins)
Remove from oven and let cool a little bit.
Gently wiggle the muffin top to loosen then pull the whole muffin out.
Run a knife around the edge of the top, if needed. Cool on a wire rack.
