Notes

    • Starting with room temperature eggs allows all the ingredients to mix together better, helping the batter to rise and give a fluffy texture.
    • If desired, do not use the wild blueberries that come with the mix. In this case, use 2 cups of fresh blueberries (1 pint). I don't like to waste so I use 1 1/2 cups of fresh blueberries plus the included wild blueberries. Be sure to rinse and drain the canned blueberries well before adding to the muffin batter.
    • Zest the lemon before juicing. Lemon juice and lemon zest are needed for the muffins and the glaze.
    • The lemon glaze is optional, but highly recommended.
    • To get larger muffins, divide the batter evenly between 10 or 11 muffins instead of 12.
    • The nutritional values are auto-calculated and can vary depending on the products used.
