Yes, this is what Summer is all about!
I bought fresh blueberries thinking I’d use them in my Greek yogurt to be healthy, but you know… they sat in the refrigerator just staring at me.
Meanwhile, I’d previously purchased White Lily buttermilk cornmeal mix to use as a dredge for Fried Green Tomatoes. However, my green tomatoes sat on the counter and eventually turned into ripe red tomatoes…sigh.
I contemplated what to do (drumming my fingers on the kitchen counter) – then I checked out the back of the bag of cornmeal mix – and to my surprise I saw this perfect recipe for Blueberry Corn Muffins with a Lemon Glaze! I immediately thought to myself, “SOLD”!
I’m not going to lie…..I’m NOT a recipe person. In my opinion, 99% of the time when I look at a recipe on a package, I roll my eyes in disbelief and think it must be meant for those poor souls who just simply disdain cooking. I mean, come on, those recipes are usually very “pedestrian” and way, way, way too simplified to be of any use.
BUT – these muffins are the BOMB! In every single way. 1) The recipe was easy. 2) Spot on correct. 3) Produced an excellent batch.

Just to be clear – I’m much more of a “cooker” than a “baker” … easy baking recipes that are sure to turn out right make me happy….
Try them yourself!
And, no I’m being compensated from White Lily cornmeal mix. I’m just a fan. 🙂
