At our house, special family memories often involve food and I must say we've been doing a lot of eating this weekend.... fried chicken, potato salad, watermelon..... And since our blueberry picking was a success we've been eating a TON of blueberries. We've made blueberry pancakes, and blueberry muffins, and had lots and lots of blueberries for snacking.
This morning for breakfast I made The Best Ever Blueberry Muffins and I'm happy to share the recipe. They are the yummiest! The crumb topping makes them super delicious and unfortunately we will never be able to eat a package of Martha White muffin mix ever again. (sorry Martha.)
