Breakfast Appetizers: Mini Blueberry Muffins

A few weeks ago a few friends thought up the idea of a potluck brunch. Most called out that they would make the typical staples to any breakfast: eggs, bacon, bagels, fruit, french toast, pancakes, even sweet treats to end the meal; but oddly enough nobody mentioned something to snack on prior to the main event. I thought of making mini-muffins. They are perfect bite sized treats that can be easily served as a simple breakfast appetizer. 

Ingredients:
2 Cups All Purpose Flour
4 Tsp Baking Powder
1/2 Tsp Salt
1/2 Cup Sugar
1/4 Cup Softened Butter
1 Egg
1 Cup Milk
Juice of 1/2 Lemon
1/2 Tsp Vanilla
1 Cup Blueberries

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Once butter has softened, mix into the dry mixture. In a separate bowl slightly beat the egg. Pour the milk into the same bowl with the egg and stir. Add the egg and milk mix slowly to the flour mixture, until it is just wet. Add in the Lemon juice and Vanilla and mix. Lightly fold in the blueberries.

Spray a mini muffin pan with cooking spray. Spoon in the filling into each cup until almost full. Lightly sprinkle sugar on each filling prior to putting in oven. Bake for about 20 minutes until muffins are golden brown. Remove muffins from tin with spoon and let cool.

Serve warm or cold.

Enjoy!
