Banana Blueberry Lemon Muffins

I woke up craving banana blueberry muffins so this is what I made:

Ingredients:
2 1/4 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 large ripe bananas, mashed
2 eggs
2/3 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup blueberries
2 tablespoons grated lemon rind
3 tablespoons sugar

This recipe gives moist muffins and the sweetness is only from the bananas (since I omitted the sugar topping), which is heavenly good. I still love the basic muffin recipe I found earlier but I will use this recipe for making banana blueberry muffins. This recipe yields 6 regular sized muffins.

1. Preheat oven to 375F.
2. Mix 1 1/8 cup all purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon and 1 tablespoon lemon rind in a bowl.
3. In another bowl, melt 1/4 cup butter using the microwave then add 1 mashed banana, 1 egg, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1/2 tablespoon. Mix until combined.
4. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients then mix until combined (do not overmix).
5. Add 1/2 cup frozen blueberries into the wet ingredients and stir until just combined.
6. Scoop batter into lined muffin tins, dividing them equally.
7. Bake 25 minutes or until golden brown.

Note: Awesome recipe.
