Blueberry Muffin Tops

Yum

Do you know what day it is?  Today is National Blueberry Muffin Day.  I actually posted my favorite blueberry muffin recipe a few weeks back and could kick myself for not waiting to post it for today.   That did not stop me from celebrating because I came up with these blueberry muffin tops just for today.  My favorite part of the muffin is the top.  So why not get a whole batch of muffin tops to enjoy.  These tops also save you on calories because you avoid eating an entire muffin... and you know what that means...that means it saves you from getting a muffin top of your own!  So get your double duty use of your whoopie pie pan... make some muffin tops today.

2 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt

Note: You can make the optional sugar glaze  by mixing the powdered sugar and water then top the muffins when they have cooled down.
