A recipe perfect for when that craving for something sweet hits. These are healthy enough to eat for breakfast!
The reason I don’t bake very often is this: when I bake, I eat. (Also I’m not very successful at baking haha;). I tell myself I’m only going to have one, but come on, who stops at one? Two is practically the same as three. I can’t end on an odd number so three turns into four. And this number grows exponentially until I physically can’t bear to think about food ever again. Then we repeat the whole process in about an hour.
I’ve had a major craving for blueberry muffins for a few weeks now. Every time I look in the freezer, I see the bags of blueberries I picked in the summer. Now that fresh blueberries are going to be in season soon, I want to use up all of my frozen! Seriously, I’ve been eating blueberries like crazy. In oatmeal, pancakes, basically any breakfast food you can think of. I’m surprised my skin isn’t a light purple yet. When I saw a recipe for blueberry muffins on Pinch of Yum, I knew I had to make some.
When I first photographed these muffins I just wasn’t happy with the pictures. Finally I added the glaze and I realized that you need a glaze. Both for the pictures, and for eating. The glaze adds that perfect amount of sweetness, also because the muffins aren’t overly sweet themselves. And a glaze makes everything prettier, don’t we agree?
These muffins have tasty blueberries in every bite.
Did I mention this recipe only makes 3 muffins? Granted they’re jumbo muffins. It would probably make about 6 regular sized muffins, but everyone knows that bigger is better. These are perfect – one for me, one for mom. . . . another for me.
So I ate the last one and now I want more. Maybe we should just double the recipe and make 6 jumbo muffins…

Thanks Christine! I think it should just be a rule that everything needs a glaze/frosting
These look so good!

Thanks Emily!! That really means a lot
Holy moly these look fantastic!! Blueberry muffins are definitely one of my favorite kinds (alongside corn muffins➔ just in case you want to make a recipe for those too
), but adding glaze looks like it takes them to a whole new level.
And of course you have to eat one— or seven— fresh from the oven! Quality control.

Holy YUM! These muffins look amazing! I just want to scoop up some of that drizzled glaze from the side, LOL. Thanks so much for sharing at Simple Supper Tuesday.

Do these need to be stored in the refrigerator? They are delicious by the way!
I would store them after a day or two of sitting out. They’ll keep in the fridge for a week!
