Method

Muffin Batter Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

  5. 5

    Add Blueberries

    Fold in the fresh blueberries until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

  6. 6

    Fill Muffin Tin

    Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.

  7. 7

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  8. 8

    Cool

    Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chocolate Sauce Preparation

  1. 9

    Heat Cream

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Do not boil.

  2. 10

    Melt Chocolate

    Remove from heat and add the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the sauce is smooth.

  3. 11

    Cool Slightly

    Let the chocolate sauce cool slightly before using it to drizzle over the muffins.

Strawberry Jam Preparation

  1. 12

    Prepare Strawberries

    Wash and hull the fresh strawberries, then chop them into small pieces.

  2. 13

    Cook Jam

    In a saucepan, combine the chopped strawberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens (about 15-20 minutes).

  3. 14

    Cool Jam

    Remove from heat and let the jam cool before serving. The jam will thicken more as it cools.
