Lemon Bluberry Muffins

Tuesday, April 09, 2013

You know, it's a good thing chocolate and lemon don't taste good together...Because that's all my poor family would get!  I love anything lemon, and anything chocolate.  I'm kind of addicted.  So when I made lemon blueberry muffins for breakfast, it wasn't a surprise.

 
The sour-cream gave them the perfect consistency, and they were super easy to mix together and throw in the tins.
 
 
 
 
With just the perfect lemon tang, they'll make any morning brighter.
 
 
Okay so maybe that last line was a little cheesy, sorry about that....:) :)  I'm kinda tired, or can you tell?

  2. Preheat oven to 375. Fill cupcake pan with liners (or use a cooking spray) and fill with batter about 2/3 the way full. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove muffins from pan and allow to cool.

BUT PLEASE KEEP READING!  There's more!  Maybe not so much reading to be done, but more pictures.  This time of spring-ish things:)  I've dusted off my camera and gotten back into snapping random pictures all the time.  Mostly because it's spring, and there's flowers, and I much prefer to be outside NOW as opposed to when it's snowing.  But that could just be me:)
