Once you’ve tried these Eggless Blueberry Muffins, I can promise you that you will never go back to using eggs in your muffins again!
Why do people coat blueberries with flour?
The light coating of flour around the berries will absorb some of the fruit’s liquid, making them less likely to sink. This is especially helpful when the batter is thin; thicker batters are a little better at cradling the fruit and keeping it suspended.
Ingredients
- 1½ cup minus 3 tbsp All-purpose flour/ maida

Method
