Well I made these again since the first time I flubbed it up. These muffins should use only fresh blueberries - frozen makes the batter set up too quickly and makes the muffin too dense. With fresh berries, the flavor is fantastic and the muffins are light in texture and I LOVE the fact that there are so many blueberries within the muffin. Made for Camera-less Chef June 2008. Thanks for sharing Molly and for your patience with my first attempt the other day! :D
