Blueberry Muffing and Bread

[Triss]

Last week I ended up using Ariel's recipe for blueberry muffins and another friends recipe for blueberry bread.  They both turned out great...  and in case I lose my copies, I am posting both along with a picture here.



Blueberry Muffins

Ingredients
 
·   1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
·   3/4 cup white sugar
·   1/2 teaspoon salt
·   2 teaspoons baking powder
·   1/3 cup vegetable oil
·   1 egg
·   1/3 cup milk
·   1 cup fresh blueberries
·   1/2 cup white sugar
·   1/3 cup all-purpose flour
·   1/4 cup butter, cubed
·   1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Directions
1.   Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease muffin cups or line with muffin liners.
2.   Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, 3/4 cup sugar, salt and baking powder. Place vegetable oil into a 1 cup measuring cup; add the egg and enough milk to fill the cup. Mix this with flour mixture. Fold in blueberries. Fill muffin cups right to the top, and sprinkle with crumb topping mixture.
3.   To Make Crumb Topping: Mix together 1/2 cup sugar, 1/3 cup flour, 1/4 cup butter, and 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon. Mix with fork, and sprinkle over muffins before baking.
4.   Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until done.

Blueberry Loaf

1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
1 cup of sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup butter melted
2 large eggs
1 tsp. lemon zest
2 Tbsp. lemon juice

Preheat oven to 350. Combine first four ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Stir in blueberries.  In another medium mixing bowl, whisk remaining ingredients until thoroughly combined.  Add this mixture to the flour mixture. Stir only until just blended. Over stirring will make the bread tough.  Pour batter into a lightly greased 8 and 1/2 x 4 and 1/2 inch GLASS loaf pan. Bake for one hour or until a tooth pick in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes.   Remove loaf from pan and continue cooling on wire rack for an hour or until you no longer have any self-control.

Of the two, I liked the consistency of the bread better.  I liked the topping on the muffins better and ended up using it on both.  The kids ate it all up so they enjoyed all of it!
