Although the muffins were moist and delicious, only 2 came out as a whole muffin. The rest came out as tops and bottoms :) I used Pam in my muffin tins to grease them; maybe a butter greasing with flour would help. Also, I found that the batter exceeded the amount to fill the cups only 1/2 full, and I overfilled them. The muffins weren't huge, but because the tops spread out slightly over the muffin tin, it was hard to run a knife around them to release. I likely won't dust with sugar next time either. Tasty recipe anyways, so adapt to your circumstances. Thanks!

These were very good. The right trexture and amount of blueberries. I added a touch of egg wash to the tops before dusting with the sugar and they came out golden brown. The second time I made them I added 1/2 cup mashed banana instead of blueberries and they were even better. My kids loved them. ;)Erica

These muffins turned out really well. I used 1/2 whole wheat flour, and they were still nice and moist. They weren't sweet enough for my DH, but he's got a sweet tooth!! My kids and I thought they were great :) I made 24 mini's and 6 large, greased the pans and had no problems with sticking. The mini's took 17 minutes. We really liked these, and I will try making them with all whole wheat next time. Thanks for the yummy recipe :) :)

I'm a real estate agent in the lovely city of Rochester, New York. That's not what I expected to do with my life. I got my bachelor's in psychology, my masters in literacy education, and I taught high school special education for two years. Then I discovered that helping people find the homes of their dreams was my real passion. I've been doing it for over two years now and still absolutely love my career.
Other than that, I have a very spoiled Border Collie mix named Bear that I adopted from a local shelter in spring '08. He's gorgeous and fun and brings me great joy. Now if only I could find a man like that... LOL!
