Blueberries and sunshine greeted me this morning.
And a bit of buttermilk that needed to be used.
A sunny morning calls for a sunny yellow apron ... with a daisy tucked in the pocket.
One of the things that drew me to this recipe was the addition of freshly grated orange peel.
I love the fresh pop of flavor provided by fresh orange or lemon peel. As I grated that peel my kitchen smelled even sunnier . . . like Florida. A most welcome smell in January.
Blueberries are my favorite for adding to muffins. I also love them on oatmeal, cereal and fruit salads. For a little berry, they pack a lot of punch in the healthy eating department. You can read more about it here if you're interested.
Twenty minutes later . . .
A most delicious (& healthy:) mid-afternoon snack.
And a bit of buttermilk that needed to be used.
Dear Mr. Google,
Blueberries + Buttermilk =
Buttermilk Berry Muffins.
Mmmm, sounds good to me and the yellow, blue & white muffin papers with polka dots, kinda sealed the deal. The recipe can be found here.

Hi Kim,
ReplyDeleteWow..those blueberries are gorgeous! And those muffins looked so delicious...I'm sure they are. I have a bunch of frozen bags in the freezer from picking this summer. May just break out a bag and make this recipe...Thanks for sharing. Hope all is well in the Carolinas! Can't believe you get that much snow!!
Have a great weekend...

Blueberry Muffins are the Best! After looking at yours I need to take a bag of our local blueberries from my freezer and bake a batch! :) Yummy!

Kim, I rarely bake blueberry muffins because I am yet to get ahold of a really good recipe. But these look scrumptious! I have plenty of blueberries in the freezer and I think I'll add buttermilk to my grocery list. I'm one of those people that like to drink it too:D Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI love BB muffins too and you did it up so lovely my dear! :D
