Breakfast

Blueberry Muffins

2 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup butter
2/3 cup sugar
1 egg
3/4 cup milk (skim, 2%, or whole)
1 cup blueberries (if they're not in season in your area, frozen work well, and no need to thaw.  Throw them in frozen!)

 

Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt.  In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar.
Add the egg and milk, beat until fluffy.
Add flour mixture to the creamed butter a little at a time.  Add the blueberries.  Spoon the batter into sprayed muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake at 425 degrees for 18 minutes or until golden.

Serve with a hot cup of Earl Grey tea.
