Blueberry Muffins and a card


Yesterday, my friend Michelle and I were chatting on-line and she told me she had just picked up 100# of blueberries (not all for her)! I told her I had just made blueberry muffins this week and took some pics (yes I know I'm weird) and would post the recipe.

I have wonderful memories of picking blueberries at a U-Pick farm in Michigan. Yummy!
Blueberry Muffins
3/4 c. milk
1/4 c. vegetable oil
1 large egg
2 c. flour
1/2 c. sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 t. salt
1 cup fresh (or frozen) blueberries
Heat oven to 400*. Either grease only bottoms of muffin pans or use muffin liners.
Beat milk, oil and egg in a large bowl. Stir in dry ingredients just until flour is moistened (batter will be lumpy). Fold in blueberries. Do not over mix or your batter will be blue. Spoon into muffin cups and sprinkle with Struesel Topping.
Streusel Topping
1/4 c. flour
1/4 c. brown sugar
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
Mix, then cut in 2 tablespoon margarine until crumbly.
Bake 20-25 minutes or until done.
Now on to my card. Punch art has been really popular lately. You can find all kinds of punch art ideas on Splitcoaststampers. This card was inspired by this one on Stamp Owl's Studio by Frances Byrne. Isn't this puppy just the cutest?
