Blueberry Muffin in a mug



When you need a muffin...............and don't want to drive to Starbucks!

You are welcome :-)

Found this tasty recipe on Country Living. Follow it to a T or choose my version* with substitutions below.

Ingredients:

4 Tbsp self rising flour
4 Tbsp sugar
3 Tbsp milk
2 Tbsp butter (melted)
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp blueberries (fresh or frozen)
Powdered sugar for sprinkling


Directions:

Mix the flour and sugar in a a large mug. Add the milk, butter, and vanilla and stir until well combined. Fold in the blueberries. Sprinkle sugar on top. Microwave on high for 1 minute if you are using fresh berries, and 1 1/2 to 2 minutes with frozen berries, or until the top is just set.


You can swap up the blueberries for raspberries, strawberries or blackberries or try a mix of berries for a burst of flavor

*My version with less sugar and applesauce instead of butter:

4 Tbsp self rising flour
3 Tbsp sugar
3 Tbsp milk
2 Tbsp apple sauce
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp blueberries (fresh or frozen)
Powdered sugar for sprinkling

FYI....I had to cook mine for almost 2 minutes in order for the top to set and I used fresh blueberries so their juices exploded onto the mixture which made this little muffin even more delicious.

Enjoy!
