Lemon Blueberry Muffins Recipe

These are the muffins I grew up with as a child. I fondly remember the smell of these treats as they baked in the oven at the cottage in the thick of summer. We’d pick fresh blueberries and devour the entire lot of them in one sitting. Best slathered in lemon curd or mascarpone cheese. It’s best to sprinkle a bit of sugar onto the muffin batter before you pop them in the oven. You can also supplement other berries but most bleed into the batter so be sure to incorporate them into the batter gently.
