Citrus-Topped Double Blueberry Muffins

Makes: 12 servingsYield: 12 muffins

Prep 15 mins Bake 375° 20 mins

2 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup sugar

2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 eggs

3/4 cup buttermilk or milk

6 tablespoons butter, melted

1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

1/2 cup blueberry preserves

1 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel

1 teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel

2 tablespoons sugar

2 tablespoons butter, melted

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2-1/2-inch muffin cups with paper liners. Set aside.

2. Stir together flour, the 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Make a well in the center of flour mixture; set aside.

3. Whisk together eggs, buttermilk, and 6 Tbsp. melted butter; add all at once to the dry mixture. Stir just until moistened (batter should be lumpy). Fold in blueberries. Remove 1 cup of batter.

4. Spoon remaining batter into prepared muffin cups, filling about half full. Spoon 2 tsp. of blueberry preserves into the center of each muffin. Top with remaining batter to cover the preserves, filling muffin cups about two-thirds full. Bake 20 minutes or until golden.

5. Meanwhile, stir together orange peel, lemon peel, and the 2 Tbsp. sugar. Remove muffins from oven; brush with 2 Tbsp. melted butter. Sprinkle citrus-sugar mixture on top. Cool in muffin cups on wire rack 15 minutes. Serve warm.
