Blueberry Muffins

We have 30+ blueberry plants in our yard and this year they are really loaded with berries. Blueberry Muffins have always been one of my favorite kind of muffins, so it made plenty of sense to make some.

 

 

These muffins were full of fresh blueberries and topped with a brown sugar and oat streusel.

 

 

  I'm not too sure of the exact reason that I like blueberry muffins so much...

 

 

...they're just... really good. (So good, that I ate three of the seven that this recipe made!)

 

 

I baked these in an XL muffin tin - surprise, surprise! :)
