Maple Blueberry Muffins
Growing up in northern Ontario meant that we ate a lot of wild blueberries. You see, every summer when I was a kid, my family would spend at least one weekend foraging along the rugged Canadian landscape picking blueberries to freeze for use in the winter months. Raising my daughters in southern Ontario meant living amongst the sugar maples and farmers selling delicious, fresh maple syrup out of their sugar shacks. Make this muffin today and, like us, enjoy these beautiful, treasured Canadian flavours!
