SIMPLE BLUEBERRY MUFFINS

A simple children’s favourite at Our Kids Mataki Way. I have parents asking me about this recipe regularly. Good for school boxes and very quick and easy to make. Can substitute blueberries with your child’s favourite fruit. Strawberry & banana is another favourite at the centre.
