Made these muffins today and really loved them! Light and fluffy. I didn't have quite enough lemon zest so added a few squeezes of fresh lemon juice. At the combining stage, I noticed the batter seemed a bit too dry so added in some milk to get it to the right consistency before folding in the blueberries. Turned out fantastic although mine didn't brown on top enough after 30 minutes of cooking - likely my oven temp is off a bit. Very pleased overall with the flavor. Made 18 muffins!
