Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 c sifted flour
1/2 c sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 c vegetable shortening
1 large egg
1/2 c milk
1 c fresh blueberries (frozen can be used)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare 12 muffin cups by greasing or using paper liners. Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a different bowl combine shortening, egg, and milk. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Carefully fold in blueberries. Don't worry if you crush a couple, the juices make a nice color swirl. Fill prepared muffin cups 2/3 full. Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes until lightly golden.
  • 2. NOTE: This was not in the original recipe. I like to add 1/2-1 teaspoon cinnamon to the dry ingredients. Then after filling muffin cups, before baking, I like to sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar on the unbaked muffins.
