Blueberry Muffins

I really need to stop baking but hey, what's the winter for anyway? These muffins are always delicious and even more so because I used the delicious, super flavourful wild blueberries that I brought home from Nova Scotia. I couldn't believe how reasonable they were compared to what we have here. i bought a case of fresh and froze them when I got home.You can use frozen berries or fresh, no matter, they will turn out great.
I cut one open to show how delicious they were on the inside and was only going to eat a half and then it was so good, I had to eat the second half. Need to test the recipes, don't you know.

Blueberry Muffins
1 egg
1 cup milk (I used 1%)
1/2 cup cooking oil
1/4 cup sugar ( I added a bit more)
3 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 cup blueberries
2 Tbsp lemon or orange rind, finely grated

Heat oven to 400F
Grease bottoms of muffins tins or use liners
Beat egg, stir in milk and oil. Mix in remaining ingredients until flour is moistened.
Batter should be lumpy.
Fill muffin cups 2/3 full. Sprinkle sugar on the top of each muffin. Bake 25 to 30 min or until golden.
