Looking to wow mom on Mother’s Day? One way to do that is with this muffin you can serve to her for breakfast or brunch on Mother’s Day! It’s packed with fresh blueberries and it has a sweet glaze that’s going to put a smile on your mom’s face. And attached at the end of this post is a free printable Mother’s Day gift tag. You can attach the tag to a special gift or a basket of muffins.
To make these muffins, you need to mix the dry ingredients first: mix the 1 3/4 cups of flour, the 1/3 cup sugar, the 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Once you are done mixing the dry ingredients, make a hole in the middle for the egg, milk, and oil.
In a bowl combine your beaten egg, 3/4 cup milk, and 1/4 cup oil. Now pour these ingredients into the center of the dry ingredients.
Now mix just until all ingredients are moistened. You don’t want to over mix your muffins. The batter should be lumpy. If you over mix the batter your muffins will be dense and tough.
Mix in your 6 oz. package of washed fresh blueberries (you could use frozen blueberries).
Lightly grease your muffin pan or line with paper cups. Fill each muffin cup 2/3 full. It will make 10-12 muffins. My batch made 10 muffins.
Bake in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes or until they are golden brown. Now glaze the muffins with a frosting to add that special touch for Mother’s Day.
You can make the same frosting I used on my Cherry Bars, Powdered Sugar Frosting. Combine the margarine, milk, and vanilla in a pan on the stove and heat it until the margarine is melted. Then in a bowl place 2 cups of powdered sugar and add the warm liquid ingredients that you just heated on the stove to the powdered sugar one teaspoon at a time. This recipe makes a lot of frosting so you may have some left over.
