Each week when we are given the recipe for the next Muffin Monday, we are permitted to modify the recipe. Well I really went off the beaten path with this one. This week’s muffin was zucchini muffins. When I told that to my husband, he made a face. When I said I could modify, he said he wanted blueberry muffins! Talk about a change up. The original recipe was of course more savory than sweet so I went ahead & followed a different recipe I found on my All Recipes app. There were so many to choose from. Not surprising since blueberry is a popular choice. In hindsight I realize I could’ve used a recipe from one of my many cookbooks but what the hey, right?
They came out with a nice golden brown color. Quick & easy & the hubs loved them too.
Since it’s just him & I at home & the pups can’t have muffins, he’s been taking the rest to work. The muffins have gotten so popular that the guys at the office ask him on Monday mornings “What kind of muffin is it this week?”

2 cups all-purpose flour

Hehe I know right? He loved these muffins. However the theme I’ve been getting after reading some posts from you peeps is that the zucchini was barely noticeable and your KIDS enjoyed them. This right here tells me my hubs is a big baby!
I like your style. Why not? Go with what you like instead of making the man unhappy. :) Blueberry muffins are always a winner anyway. Beautiful!

Hehe thanks. I think I may make the zucchini ones & not tell him since the consensus from most of you is that they were barely noticeable :)
Ha! Whatever works! I’m not sure I’d be able to resist one of those ‘faces’ either, had I been given one ;) Blueberry muffins with a little streusel on top are hands down my favourite and go-to muffins.
Gotta love the go to muffins! However I’ll make the zucchini muffins soon & just add chocolate. Hubs will NEVER know ;)
ooh could you send some of those over here so I can have one for breakfast in the morning? :)
I happen to have some left over! Let me sent it to ya :)
Blueberry,i don’t know it can be,well i’m not that good in baking,or should i say i don’t have a talent in this thing.Anyway,thanks for sharing this with us.I really like it.
Next time, how about adding zucchini to the husband’s blueberry muffins? That will surely ease him into liking zucchini. ;)
