Ingredients 2 cups flour 4 tsp baking powder 1 cup Caster Sugar 1 egg 1/4 cup oil 1 1/2 cups milk 1 tsp grated lemon rind 2 tsp lemon juice 1 1/2 cups blueberries Chelsea Icing Sugar to dust
Method Preheat oven to 200°C Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl until just combined and moistened. Don’t over mix or the muffins will be tough and not rise evenly. Spoon into well greased, deep muffin tins. Bake for 15 – 18 minutes. Cool on a wire rack and dust with Chelsea icing sugar to serve.
From the Chelsea sugar website - I have made them before and they're yum!

Alison holst's one is the only blueberry muffin recipe I make now. It's exceptionally good.
2 cups flour, 4 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 3/4 cup sugar, 100 grams butter, 1 cup milk, 1 large egg, 1 to 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries.
Heat oven to 220 degrees. Sieve first 5 ingredients into fairly large bowl. In another big bowl warm butter till just melted, then add milk and egg and beat to mix thoroughly. Prepare berries then tip the dry mixture and the berries into the liquids. Without overmixing fold all together. Flour should be dampened not smooth. Divide mixture into 12 regular muffin tins that have been greased or coated with non stick spray. Top with cinnamon sugar. Bake 12 to 15 minutes until cooked. I hope this is what you are looking for. It is out of simon and alison fav muffin and slices book.

If using frozen blueberries, Alison Holst has suggested poking them into the muffin mixture after it's in the pans to stop 'bleeding' caused by the mixing.

+3 for allyson holsts recipe. but I've only had frozen berries! I was laughing at the weighing the kids in and out - when I was 6 we went strawberry picking and we were told not too eat too many as they would know. Apparently I piped up and said how will they know!! Mum said they will weigh you - I said, well they didn't weigh us on the way in!
