Blueberry Sour Cream Muffins

I always hesitate to label a recipe as “the best” because there are so many excellent recipes for any given item.  As soon as I decide one recipe is the best, I try another recipe and think it is even better.  So I am more likely to designate a recipe as “one of my favorites” or “one of the best”.  I have also been known to say that a certain recipe is one of my Top 5 or Top 10 favorite recipes.  But “the best”?  I have a hard time handing out that label.  That being said, this Blueberry Sour Cream Muffin recipe is one of my favorites, one of my Top 5, and absolutely one of the best muffin recipes ever.  THE best?  Maybe!  Give this recipe a try and you be the judge!     


These muffin are full of blueberries, and the sour cream makes them perfectly moist.  This is a simple recipe to make—it’s so easy to whip up a batch for breakfast, for a snack, or for dessert.
