The batter comes together quickly in a bowl and like most muffin recipes, no electricity required!  Melt the butter in the microwave and let is come to room temperature.  When you do whisk the wet ingredients together it will resemble curdled milk but that is fine, it will all work out.  When folding the berries in, add them just before all of the flour is incorporated so that the berries won’t all be broken up.  Fresh berries work best in this recipe, but you can use frozen blueberries, just toss them with a teaspoon of flour first before you add them to the batter.
