Blueberry Buttermilk Muffins



Blueberries - delicious and healthy! They are naturally high in antioxidants for disease protection, they help to improve memory, and are heart healthy. They have been called "the power food".


I mentioned it is blueberry season, so here is another favorite of mine, Blueberry Buttermilk Muffins. The buttermilk give's it the perfect flavor and texture! Plus I add the crumb topping. It is your choice weather or not you want it.
