Blueberry-Lime Muffins

As you probably know by now,  My Baking Addiction is one of my favorite sources for recipes.  I have yet to make anything I have found here that hasn't been divine.  So, when she posted a recipe last week for blueberry-lime muffins I couldn't wait for a reason to bake some myself!  Fortunately, an opportunity quickly presented itself when my mom asked me to bake some muffins for the women's breakfast/baby shower at our church today...yay!

These muffins are very moist (very important to me...can't stand a dry muffin!) and loaded with blueberries and lime zest.  Great combination.  Jamie at My Baking Addiction topped hers with coarse sugar, which really looked spectactular, but I didn't simply because I don't have any.  Next time I will, though, because I thought it made the finished product look just that much better.  Not that mine don't look good....I think they do!!  Judge for yourself!

You click here, My Baking Addiction, to see the recipe for these super scrumptious muffins!  Now I'm off to share my muffins at Lindsay's baby shower!  Oh, by the way, this recipe makes 12 muffins.  I doubled it, which worked out just fine.  :)

Awesome Banana Muffins....

At the last minute yesterday evening, I remembered that I had promised a sweet, older woman from our church that I would bake her some banana muffins.  So, I dug out my favorite banana muffin recipe and got to work.

I hadn't made these muffins in awhile and had forgotton how EASY they are!  Fortunately, Saturday is my grocery day, so I did have some bananas on hand.  I don't even wait for them to be over ripe, I just use them as they are.

The recipe is from one of my fav recipe blogs, Cat Can Cook.  If you don't know Cat, you should.  She's awesome.  If you would like to see the original recipe, you can find it here:  Cat Can Cook.   I made them plain, but they are also good with nuts and/or chocolate chips (of course that's my favorite!)!

Banana Muffins (recipe courtesy of Cat Can Cook!)

Ingredients:
4 large bananas, mashed
1/2 cup sugar
1 slightly beaten egg
1/3 cup melted butter
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cup flour

Instructions:
Mix together mashed bananas, sugar, egg, and butter in a large bowl.  Set aside.  In a separate bowl,  mix together baking soda, baking powder, salt, and flour.  Combine the dry stuff with the wet stuff.  Pour into greased muffin cups, or cupcake liners (this is what I use).  Bake at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes.

Super moist, super yummy, and super easy.  That is my kind of muffin.
