Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

2. 2

   Grease a muffin pan with 2+1/2-inch diameter cups, or line with paper baking cup liners; set aside.

3. 3

   In a bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; add frozen blueberries, and make a well in the center.

4. 4

   Pour the milk into a 2 cup glass measure and add egg and butter; blend well.

5. 5

   Pour liquid all at once into flour well (This method allows you to mix the batter with fewer strokes, avoiding overtiring).

6. 6

   Making 12 to 15 full circular strokes that scrape the bottom of bowl; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened (Batter 'should' be lumpy).

7. 7

   Fill each prepared muffin cup 2/3 full with batter.

8. 8

   Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until tops are lightly browned.

9. 9

   Remove muffins from pan immediately (otherwise moisture condenses on bottom of cups and muffins become soggy).
