    The prep time of 15 minutes is a joke. It took me 45 minutes to get these in the oven. These muffins were edible, but certainly not great. I won't make them again. Thankfully they have a decent amount of blueberries, as that's the only taste they have - they are otherwise extremely bland. I also don't care for the cake-like texture. I followed the recipe exactly, but I'd recommend doubling the lemon zest if you want to taste the lemon. I'd also add some cinammon to boost the flavor.

    The recipe is easy to prepare and the lemon zest adds the perfect flavor combination with the blueberries.

    I thought these were good basic muffins. Nothing to die for but we ate them all and thought they were pretty good.

    I went a head and made these even though they only had 4 stars. My kids love blueberry muffins and lemon so I thought these might be a new hit. My son hated them, my daughter thought they were ok. My husband and I were not thrilled with them. Will not make again.

    I am a fairly advanced cook, followed this recipe almost exactly (I added a tsp of zest, because my husband loves lemon and blueberry, and used really good, fresh ingredients, but these are the worst muffins I have ever made. They have no blueberry or lemon taste, and the flour tastes totally raw. I even cooked them longer than the recipe states, because they were so pale and I wanted them golden brown, but they are still pale and flavorless. They are so dense, they are like little bricks - the texture is like very dense poundcake, only it doesn't taste as good! The only distinct taste is the nutmeg, which cuts through all the other ingredients. I worked in a coffee shop/bakery for 3 years and baked muffins from scratch almost every morning, so I know what I am doing. I don't know where these went wrong, but I would definitely suggest any other recipe than these! I am bummed, because I wasted fresh picked Maine blueberries on muffins that will probably be eaten by the dog!

    I used 2 full cups of blueberries instead of 1 1/2. Figured can't go wrong with more fruits in this recipe. It's fabulous!

    I decided to make muffins out of cinnamon apple instant oatmeal. So I left out 1/2 cup of flour and used 2 packages of oatmeal and and baked for 23 minutes and I love them. I am not much of a baker and I was a little surprised when my hot melted buter formed lumps with my cold milk and would have liked a warning in the recipe. But it was pretty easy

    I, also, added fresh raspberries along with the fresh blueberries. In addition I blended the melted butter into the flour mixture, cutting it in to blend thoroughly. Then, added the egg/milk mixture to the dry ingredients. I also used wheat flour in combination with unbleached flour. I also folded in 1/2 cup low-fat granola and 1/4 cup chopped walnuts. This made 18 delicious, muffins with a little added flavor.

    I have always wanted a muffin recipe that would turn out moist, flavorful, and somewhat good for you. I found it! I mixed blueberries and rasberries because I didn't have enough and my family couldn't stop eating them. I will make more next time.
