Pierre Herme's Blueberry Muffins are the Best Blueberry Muffins that I have even had...they milky, silky, moist and just right for your sweet tooth. I have many different blueberry muffins from many places...this will be the recipe that I will only use to make blueberry muffins.

- In another bowl, combine all wet ingredients.
- Incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined, then fold in 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen).
