Actually this weekend it was too hot and humid to even think about baking, but I had these yummy fresh blueberries smiling at me every time I opened the fridge, so I decided to mix them with dried coconut and make some summer muffins. Here’s the simple and quick recipe

Blueberry Coconut Muffins ( for 12 Muffins)
**************************************************************
Ingredients A:

*340g all purpose flour
*2 tablespoons dried, ground coconut
*2 teaspoons baking powder
*1/4 teaspoon salt

Ingredients B:

*125 g melted butter
*130g sugar
*1 sachet bourbon Vanilla sugar
*130 milk
*2 eggs

*250g fresh blueberries
**************************************************************

Preheat the oven @190ºC.
Line a muffin tray with 12 paper cups.
Mix the ingredients A in a bowl.
Melt the butter and add the sugar and vanilla sugar, beating well. Then add the eggs and milk and beat well.
Mix ingredients A with ingredients B, then add the blueberries slowly.
Fill the paper cups and bake for 17-19min, doing the toothpick test before removing from the oven

Looking at these beautiful pictures from Tim Walker of Georgia May Jagger (Vogue Italia August), I noticed I’ve seen a lot of models with this cute little teeth gap recently.  If I could get rid of mine and choose one imperfection, this would be my favourite:)

I am back from my very short holiday in Italy, where I was staying in a beautiful little village, feeling like Liv Tyler in “Stealing Beauty”.
Sorry for being a bit lazy with posting the last weeks, it’s too hot to think…

Hope you’re having a great summer!
