Blueberry muffins and mini lemon poppy seed muffins

In addition to the raspberry crumb coffee cake, I made blueberry muffins and mini lemon poppy seed muffins. Both of these recipes we were pretty easy to make and easy to double. They were both a hit! The lemon glaze made the mini muffins so moist and yummy. And you must to use fresh blueberries.

The blueberry muffin recipe came from an old Martha Stewart Living and the lemon poppy seed muffin recipe came from Emeril.
