Stocking the Chest Freezer for Winter | Baking Day | Fall Muffins

6:37 AM 6 Comments



Mega Motivation continues this month as we explore garage organization. I thought I'd show you our chest freezers and how we keep them stocked with food that helps us stay prepared with our large family. Check out the Mega Motivation playlist here to see how the other YouTubers organize their garages. 

Today's video not only shows you our chest freezers, but shares my favorite muffin recipes for freezing. 

The Chocolate Chip Banana Bread recipe can be found here.

Blueberry Streusel Muffins

Yield: makes one dozen
These delicious muffins freeze well... but they might not make it to the freezer because they'll be eaten first!

Ingredients

Muffins
  • 2 cups flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract 
  • zest from one lemon
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups blueberries + 1 Tbs flour
Streusel Topping
  • 1/3 cup sugar (white or brown)
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup chilled butter, cubed
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line muffin tin with muffin cups. Add one tablespoon of flour to blueberries and set aside. 
  2. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt, and set aside. Cream the butter and sugar together. Add eggs, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and milk. Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Mix until smooth. Gently fold in the blueberries until well incorporated. 
  3. Fill the muffin pan with the batter. Then combine the streusel toppings and mix well. Sprinkle streusel toppings on each of the muffins. (Please note: you might have leftover streusel, which you can use for more muffins if you are having a baking day.) 
  4. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the muffin comes out clean. Enjoy!
