Mini Blueberry Delight Muffins

Happy Monday Lovelies! Last week when it was raining here in Henderson, I posted on Facebook, asking you lovelies what your favorite rainy day activities were. A lot of you said baking. This immediately had me craving some baked yumminess. I looked in my fridge to see what I had that needed to be used up, blueberries and half and half were on the list. I then saw this awesome round up of lunch ideas and I decided on mini muffins. I love the idea of serving mini muffins, with fruit and yogurt, as a meal. Healthy, simple, and very yummy.

I used my Blueberry Delight Muffin recipe, but substituted the whipping cream for half and half. Oh and I used fresh blueberries instead of frozen. It tasted great! I cooked my mini muffins for 15 minutes @350' and then rolled them in white sugar for a topping.

These would make a great snack or a yummy side dish to any breakfast/lunch menu.

Blueberry Delight Muffins

Remember when I was gushing about the library and all the fantastic books I find there? Well one of the books I found at my happy place was The Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook. This book is seriously so fun! I love all of the vintage goodness found throughout the book. The pictures are amazing! I seriously have devoured every morsel of goodness in it! It was that fantastic! To make things even better, you can now snag it on Amazon for less than $3. I was super excited and downloaded it to my Kindle Fire App yesterday afternoon. Anytime I can get cookbooks for under $4, I pounce on it. I love creating meals and treats for my family, so having cookbooks is great inspiration for me!

These muffins are inspired by ones I found in Back in The Day Bakery Cookbook. My littles gobbled these goodies up in less than an afternoon. They devoured them, which I guess means either they were super hungry or they really liked them. I'm sure it was a little bit of both :)

So get out your baking essentials and make some yummy treats for your family today. These are great for a snack, breakfast, lunch you name it!

Let's get to it :)

Blueberry Delight Muffins

Mix

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup white sugar

1 tbl baking powder

1/8 tsp cinnamon

1/8 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 cup oil

4 tbl butter, melted

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

2 large eggs

3/4 cups heavy whipping cream

1 cup frozen blueberries

Topping

1/4 cup white sugar

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until thoroughly combined.

In another bowl, whisk together the oil, butter, vanilla, eggs, and whipping cream. Make a well in the center of your dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not over mix. Gently fold in your blueberries.

With a large ice cream scooper or 1/4 measuring cup, scoop the batter into prepared muffin cups. Fill them about two-thirds full. Bake at 350' for 25-30 minutes. The tops should be golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean. Remove from the oven and cool for 5 minutes.

Place 1/4 cup of sugar into a small bowl. Turn the muffins out onto the counter. Roll the tops of the muffins into the sugar and allow to cool completely.

*Don't have whipping cream? No worries, use regular milk or half and half :)

Enjoy!
