I grew up in a forest that is packed with blueberry bushes and every single year you can pick as much as possible and still have a blue forest. The blueberries you can purchase in a supermarket all year around are still quite unacceptable for me and due to that, my freezer is packed with proper blueberries from last summer. But still, I have done as much as I can to give the store bought blueberry's a chance and I have to say, the following recipe is one place I don't mind my blueberry being "fake".

Melt the butter and mix with sugar. Add finely grated lemon zest, soured cream and an egg and mix well. Add baking powder, soda and salt, mix. Sieve flour on top of the mixture and mix well. Add blueberries (you can use raspberries or any other similar berry as well).
Spoon the dough into your muffin tins, leave them half empty as they will rise. Sprinkle demerara sugar on top. This will leave a nice wee caramel flavored crunch to the top of your muffins. Bake 190 °C ~ 15 minutes. Let them cool.
Enjoy!
