BLUEBERRY MEYER LEMON BANANA MUFFINS

BLUE FOOD. Have fun and naturally color your muffins

I know I’m not supposed to talk about “happy accidents” but when you spend so much of your time experimenting in the kitchen you’re bound to have a few. Consider these that. I had this idea of incorporating blueberries into my banana muffin batter but didn’t want to speckle them through, I wanted them evenly spread through. I knew it would change the color and flavor but I didn’t think about the two tone coloring that happens due to the heat from the muffin pan making direct contact with the outside of the muffins. I thought it was super cool but wasn’t sure others would agree. So after polling you all in my Instagram Stories to see who would want the recipe, it was an overwhelming yes. So I’m writing it! I love it.

A heads up, when you’re in the batter stage, the batter’s color is a concrete grey—love the three people in my audience who quoted Beauty & The Beast saying “try the gray stuff it’s delicious don’t believe me, ask the dishes”. HA! All together, it’s super cool looking! So when you see that, don’t feel discouraged, you’re right on track.Oh, and it should be said, they taste super delicious!

If you have lots of ripe bananas, I have more recipes for you!
