directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Rinse and dry blueberries, and lightly coat with 1 Tablespoon of the pre-measured flour, to keep berries from sinking to bottom of cupcakes (or coat lightly with confectioner's powdered sugar, instead, to sweeten the berries, if preferred.).

- Add Eggs and mix well.
- In a separate bowl: sift together Flour, Baking Powder, and salt.
- Mix vanilla into the milk.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to egg mixture, alternating with milk and vanilla mixture, until well blended, and stir in blueberries.
- Fill greased or lined muffin cups 3/4 full, and sprinkle tops of batter lightly with granulated sugar, if desired.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until cupcakes are lightly browned and spring back when touched, or a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Note: You can crush some of the blueberries before adding to the batter, if you would prefer cupcakes with a blueberry color-tint.
