I chose this recipe because it called for about 2-1/2 cups of blueberries which was what I had, but was a little anxious about it since A Messy Cook hadn't made them before! Low and behold, they turned out really well. I used a silicon muffin pan and they popped out perfectly formed, not a bit crumbly, and delicious. Thank you. I will definitely make these again!
