Lore
This is the second recipe where I compare half a dozen different recipes to come up with the common factor between them all, and I'm very pleased with the results. This particular recipe matches very closely to Alton Brown's blueberry muffin recipe, which is also where I got the trick of preheating slightly low and turning the heat up to baking temperature in order to get the heating element to add more activation heat to the leavening.
