Helpful Tips
For a fun twist, consider sprinkling the tops with a bit of coarse sugar before baking for an extra crunch. If you don’t have fresh blueberries, frozen blueberries work well too—just add them straight from the freezer to prevent them from turning your batter purple.
Storage Instructions
Store any leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze them for longer storage. Simply reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds when ready to enjoy.
Pairings and Suggestions
These muffins pair wonderfully with a hot cup of coffee, tea, or a glass of cold milk. For a more elaborate breakfast, serve them alongside a fruit salad or yogurt parfait.
