Today I
made very simple and easy blueberry muffins for my kids. The fresh blueberries
in the muffins were really extraordinary. Blueberries are one type of berries
with dark indigo colour and have the highest antioxidants level. The
blueberries activate fat burning genes in abdominal fat cells to assist with
weight loss. So, one handful of blueberries in your morning breakfast helps in
burning the excess fat. Not only that
they are rich in vitamin C, E, riboflavin, niacin and folate.

Method
Wash, pat dry the blueberries and keep them aside.
Preheat the oven to 200 C/390 F. Line the muffin pan with cupcake liners.
In a
big bowl sift all-purpose flour and baking powder together. To the same bowl
add the caster sugar, salt and whisk really well for about 10 minutes with a
hand whisk.
In
another bowl, mix the egg and vegetable oil really well until combined
thoroughly. Add the vanilla extract and milk to the oil mixture and mix well.
Now add
the wet ingredients to the flour mixture and mix with a spatula. Do not over mix
otherwise the muffins will turn hard.
Add
the blueberries and gently fold it in the mixture, the consistency should be thick and
not watery. If it is really thick add one tbsp of milk and mix.
Slowly
scoop out the mixture to the muffin pan and bake it for about 20-25 minutes or
until the tooth pick comes out clean.
Delicious
and lovely Blueberry Muffins are ready to be enjoyed, perfect evening snacks
