Cooking Notes
this was not a written for beginner cooks. The muffin tin needs to be buttered. The butter needs to be cooled before the egg is mixed into it. The flour, baking pdr and salt need to be mixed in a separate bowl so that they are evenly mixed. The milk should be alternately mixed with the flour mixture into the sugar mixture. I made large (6) muffins at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes and they were perfect. Also added 1/2t cinnamon
Although these muffins came out wonderfully, this was not a written for beginner cooks. The muffin tin needs to be buttered. The butter needs to be cooled before the egg is mixed into it.

Easy recipe to put together, but the baking temperature is way off. I baked 6 large muffins as instructed and the muffins came out dry as a bone. I think they would’ve done better at 375° for 20-25 minutes.
I also made these muffins using frozen blueberries, and added some orange zest for some freshness. Absolutely delicious, not too sweet. Quick treat!
Made these this morning as 6 jumbo muffins, no changes to recipe except I used frozen rather than fresh blueberries. The batter was thick enough that they did not sink! Quick and simple to throw together, and had a nice crumb. I'd definitely make these again.
