1 Preheat oven to 375°F.
2 Line a muffin tin with paper liners or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
3 If you have an electric mixer, use it to beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy (that’s how Deb did it). I mixed the ingredients by hand, with a whisk, since I don’t have an electric mixer.
4 Add egg and beat well, then yogurt and zest.
5 If you have a sifter, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt and sift half of dry ingredients over batter. I don’t have a sifter, so I mixed the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl and added it to the bowl of liquid ingredients.
6 Mix until combined.
7 Sift (or add) remaining dry ingredients into batter and mix just until the flour disappears.
8 Gently fold in your blueberries (or whatever fruit you’re using).
9 Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the tops are golden. Enjoy!
