Berry Patch Muffins

Our Blueberry bush has just been loaded with berries this year, and we have had a very nice harvest. When I go out to pick the berries, I don't always make it back to the kitchen with all the berries, I just love eating them right off the bush.  We have an organic growing system here so we never have to worry about the product having anything undesirable on it.  I didn't eat all the berries today, so I am making these awesome muffins and you are just in time to share them with me.

    I'm jealous!
    We can hardly get fresh berries here, and you have your own bush :)
    Your muffins look great!

    What a fantastic muffin recipe...I love that it will keep that long in the fridge. Although with my hungry kids, I don't think it would last more than a day or two:-) Thank you so much for sharing on Trick or Treat Tuesday!!!
