Delicious Blueberry Muffins

Blueberries are quite amazing, they serve as an excellent anti-oxidant and is also said to be an anti-depressant. When choosing blueberries, shake the container lightly, if they move around, it's a good sign! If they are mouldy, soft or damaged, they might not roll around as freely. 


This fresh blueberry muffin recipe is a true winner. It keeps well in an appropriate container in the fridge for up to a week. Before serving, heat up the muffin in the microwave for 25 seconds if taken out of the fridge.
Muffins:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup fresh blueberries
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup applesauce

Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, sugar and salt in a bowl. In a separate container, mix the eggs, oil, blueberries and applesauce. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and stir until just combined. Pour into a lined muffin pan. 

Topping: 

1/4 cup soft butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour

Combine the ingredients and crumble until it resembles coarse maize. Crumble over muffins. Bake for approximately 20 minutes at 350F. Yields 16 large muffins.

Enjoy!
