That's the name of the recipe we used, and they were delicious! The most important ingredient was the fresh blueberries, which we have lots of right now.
This is one of the 5 bushes we have, and they're all ripening now.
You also need a good blueberry picker, which Sweet Pea is. Right after she woke up she went out and picked us some.
You also need a good mixer, one that throughly blends the ingredients. Luckily we have the littlest gardener for that.
With those important things you get some very delicious blueberry muffins!
First thing yesterday morning we worked together and made these muffins. They were so good warm out of the oven. I found the recipe at allrecipes.com. If you click here you will find the recipe. Think we may need to make another batch tomorrow morning!
Ah YUM! And great on the two helpers. I need a few of these. Those blueberries look good!
ReplyDeleteThose muffins look so good and I know the girls are so proud of the fresh blueberries. Your girls are just beautiful and such good helpers.
ReplyDeleteCatherine, You are such a wonderfully involved mother. If only more moms were like you the world would be in a much better state.
ReplyDeleteYour blog was at the top of my Picks page this morning which is uncanny because I just came home with 25 pounds of U-Pick blueberries! My bushes are loaded but not ripening yet. The blueberry farm's 'Bluecrop' bushes were loaded and RIPE. I must check out the muffin recipe. They look fantastic.
Please tell you helpers that your blog buddies think they're adorable. :)
I go out and look at my blueberries everyday hoping they are ready to pick. I am getting impatient *grin*
ReplyDeleteThey look delicious and I can see both your little helpers will enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteYour girls, blueberries and muffins are all terrific looking. Sweet Pea and the Little Gardener have great hair!
ReplyDeleteGreat family moments. My baby blueberry bushes will someday be big ol' "bluebs" like yours. A real superfood, and the bushes are so attractive esp. in Fall. Off to go get that recipe now!! Great post. - Bonnie
ReplyDeleteWhen I started reading, I hoped you'd share the recipe. We just came home from the farmers market with blueberries. Those helpers would be handy too! Paula
ReplyDeleteIt is good to have helpers, as early as the moment they wake up..
ReplyDeleteThe littlest helper is really concentrating on her job. With mouth shut tight, with eyes focussed, she will complete the job in no time...
Blueberry looks very nice.

Allrecipes is my go to place for any recipe I'm looking for! I love their star rating system too. How old is your bush? That looks like a whole lot of berries. Are you planning on making anything else? Now you just went and made me hungry. I wish my berries were ready for picking... Of course my harvest will be pitiful next to yours!
ReplyDeleteWhat a privilege to have your own blueberries. I only see them in little boxes in grocery stores. They are not large and juicy like yours. Those muffins look wonderful. Thanks for making me hungry.
ReplyDeleteYou have the prettiest helpers. Too bad there is no smell_a.com. Yummy!
ReplyDeleteAs a kid, our family ran a small blueberry farm. Picking berries wasn't fun, it was a chore. However, I still have wonderful memories of my Mom's homemade blueberry jam and her wonderful blueberry buckle. In fact, tomorrow we'll be making some buckle with the blueberries I just picked up at one of the nearby farms. Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteI hope some of you try this recipe, it really was a good one!
ReplyDeleteCinj - We've had these bushes planted here for about 3 or 4 years, and one is about 2 years old. I added lots of peat when I planted them and they really seemed to like that. Every year we get more from them. It's hard to wait, but eventually you'll be getting lots too!
You know, I haven't eaten breakfast yet and now I'm REALLY hungry! Those look fantastic. And made with your own blueberries! Impressive.
ReplyDeleteThose look so yummy and even better when prepared by such beautiful little chefs! How fun and cool that you can add ingredients from your own garden~
ReplyDeleteThose muffins look wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! And all the more fun when you can pick, eat, rinse, eat, stir, bake... and EAT. I know my girls would like to follow suit. I think we'll head out to the local mid-Tenn. farm and pick a peck. We might have to try your recipe soon!
ReplyDeleteI love this entry. Its so sweet, just like your girls to be helpful. And, I had no idea you had blueberry bushes! Do your littlest helpers also deliver?
ReplyDeleteI so wish I had blueberries! However, my mom does- time to take a trip, recipe in hand :)
ReplyDeleteNow that's really a fun post !
ReplyDeleteKids looked thrilled to help.lol
Muffins look awesome....just had some myself...friend made lots of them from our locally grown blueberries. Yummy
How cute your girls are. The muffins look so yummy. Our blueberries are winding down. I have made cobblers, cheesecakes and one of the medium kids made muffins...
ReplyDeleteThank you for stepping by my site.
ReplyDeleteYour garden is so beautiful and muffins look so delicious!!
Yahoo! What a blueberry delight! The muffins look scrumptious and your sweat pea is a cutie!
ReplyDeleteWe made similar-looking muffins yesterday, but with huckleberries - and they were definitely to die for! Plenty of butter, buttermilk and sour cream in the recipe also helped, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteYummmmmy, our bb are 2 weeks behind due to all the rain we've had. Cute harvester and chef!
