Blueberry Muffins

A muffin is a type of semi-sweet cake or quick bread that is baked in portions appropriate for one person. They are similar to cupcakes although they are usually less sweet and lack icing. There are many varieties such as low-fat and flavors of muffins made with a specific ingredient such as blueberries, chocolate chips, poppy seeds, raspberry, cinnamon, pumpkin, date, nut, lemon, banana, orange, peach, strawberry, almond and carrot, baked into the muffin. Muffins are often eaten for breakfast. Alternatively, they may be served for tea or at other meals.
