Bakery Style Blueberry Muffins
The Realistic NutritionistSometimes, a girl just needs a muffin.
A big, crumbly topped, super fruity and fluffy bakery style muffin. Such a craving hit me two weeks ago and instead of spending over $5 on a muffin, I decided to make some at home instead. For one, that $5 would double because I’d have to order a fancy no-whip flavored mocha and water to go with it. Of course, after waiting in line for about 10 minutes, I’d clearly pick up a few packets of those over-priced mints and ridiculous biscotti to enjoy after lunch. Before I even realize it, I’d be out $20. And when you’re trying to save up to buy a house in the third most expensive city in the country, ever $20 counts.
