This recipe is just meh. Define does not taste like muffins. More like blueberry bread. The blueberries were bitter and the muffins were bland. I baked then for only 15 mins. Glad I did otherwise they would have been very dry and gross. By cooking them for 15 mins, the ONLY good thing about this recipe is the muffins were SUPER moist. But not a good recipe at all.
