My kids love to start their day with an homemade treat. They really enjoy banana bread, chocolate chips muffins, poppy seeds muffins and blueberry muffins.
These muffins hit the mark. When you mix blueberry and cinnamon you cannot go wrong. This recipe is adapted from Cooking Light.
I bake a batch of bread or muffins and freeze them. In the morning they just warm one in the microwave. It's fast and healthy. Better then eating from vending machine at school.

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons chilled butter; cut into small pieces
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter, softened

Combine 1/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, and cinnamon in a medium bowl, and
cut in 3 tablespoons butter with a pastry blender until mixture

Place 1 cup sugar and 1/3 cup butter in a bowl; beat with a mixer at high
speed I minute or until combined. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after
each addition. Lightly spoon 2 1/2 cups flour into dry measuring cups;
level with a knife. Combine 2 1/2 cups flour, baking powder,and salt,
stirring with a whisk. Add flour mixture and milk alternately to butter

cinnamon mixture (batter will be thick)
Bake 15 to 18 min.

The original version of these muffins won Courtney Ayers a blue ribbon;
this adaptation was lightened a bit. A whole tablespoon of cinnamon in the
batter makes these smell heavenly when they bake.
I adapted this recipe from the CLBB
Version française:
Quoi de plus agréable que de commencer la journée avec un bon déjeuner. Mes enfants aiment bien les muffins et pains maison. Ils aiment pain aux bananes, muffins au grains de chocolat, muffins aux graines de pavot et muffins aux bleuets.
J'essaie souvent de nouvelles recettes et celle-ci de Cooking Light a obtenu un 10/10. Avec un mélange de bleuets et cannelle on ne peut pas se tromper.
