Blueberry Muffins


I've been pretty distracted from my blog lately, olympics anyone? It only happens once every four years so i'm like addicted.  OMG last night was amazeballs, two gold medals for NZ! Those guys are beasts! Plus it put us in the top 10 on the medal table for like 5mins and it was like suck on that Australia! LOL i'm totally joking, i love Australia.  Anyway, did I just get way off topic or what?

I love blueberry muffins! I found this awesome recipe to make these massive sized muffins (well in my opinion, they are massive lol).  They taste pretty good thanks to the crunchy, cinnamon sugar topping nom nom.

The biggest muffins i've ever made! Almost the size of my face! Not actually...but they were big!
This recipe should make 8 massive muffins.
