Notes

Recipe Notes:
Muffin Batter: Do not overman the muffin batter.  When you are whisking the dry ingredients into the we ingredients, whisk until just combined and smooth
Fresh or Frozen: I prefer fresh blueberries in this recipe because it keeps the muffins from gettin mushy and too much blueberry flavor.  Fresh blueberries provide the perfect amount of flavor and a great texture! 
Buttermilk:  If you don't have buttermilk you can use 1 cup of whole milk and mix in 1 tablespoon vinegar and allow the mixture to sit for 5 minutes.  This will create a h0memade buttermilk.
