Blueberry Buttermilk Muffins

Dorel's Note:

This is my adopted recipe Feb 2005 I didn't change the recipe ingredients because 11 members found it good the way it was. I did add 1 teaspoon vanilla as suggested by 1 reviewer. I used 1/2 cup canola oil instead of butter. 2 heaping cups frozen blueberries mixed with a little of the flour mixture to make sure they didn't stick together. I made 6 giant muffins. Very good muffins. I had to bake mine for 35 minutes, they were so big.

I made these Blueberry Buttermilk Muffins for my boyfriend and his family. They loved them. It was so easy to make, and a big hit. My boyfriend''s Dad said that they tasted just like how his mom had made them when he was a boy. And now he is asking my boyfriend to ask me to make him other things. It is really great that something so easy made them so happy! But when 2 big guys are around I would say double the recipe if you want any to yourself!

A very good, no problems muffin recipe. I have to confess though, I didn't have any blueberries. I added chocolate chips and chopped banana to the batter mix. Came out fine and I think this is a good versatile recipe. Made 12 big muffins and only 20 minutes to bake.

I made these for 'zaars muffin day. Great tasting muffin, although I only got 10 big muffins and not the 24 as stated.
