4. Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and pour in the liquid mixture.
6. Stir the blueberries through, making sure not to overmix the batter.
7. Place a large spoonful into each cake case.
9. Serve warm for brunch or morning tea, or cool on a wire rack to use in lunchboxes during the week.
Sophia preferred to add a lot of blueberries which makes the muffins very moist and full of berries.
If you prefer less, reduce the quantity by 30g or so.
