Jumbo Blueberry Muffins

I am always looking for easy, delicious recipes to feed my hungry kiddos in the mornings.  Our usual favorites include pancakes, overnight French Toast casserole, and my newest obsession: baked eggs.  We’ve been enjoying loads of berries this summer and these Jumbo Blueberry Muffins are chock full of berry goodness.

This is somewhat of a “small batch” recipe because it only makes 9 muffins – but they are generous in size.  I prefer big, puffy muffins over the ones with flat tops.  If you need to get a full dozen just use a little less batter in each muffin cup to stretch it for twelve.  My kids love them topped with sugar (of course!) for a little sweet crunch.
