Blueberry, Banana & White Chocolate Chip Muffins with white chocolate drizzle are beautifully moist, fruity, and delicious!
Today I made these Blueberry, Banana & White Chocolate Chip Muffins which would be perfect for kids (or grown-ups) to make for Mother’s Day.
I have made similar muffins before but this recipe has a white chocolate drizzle glaze so looks prettier and more befitting a special occasion!
My kids keep asking me what I want for Mother’s Day and I have asked for the same thing, a pie bird, for a few years now so I’m hoping (now I’ve told my son where he can get it) that this will be the year!
As my daughter is a gifted artist I have asked her to draw or paint me something as a picture from her is far better than anything money can buy (apart from the pie bird of course).
The fixation with the pie bird comes from memories of going for lunch at my grandmother’s house as a kid. I was always fascinated with this funny-looking thing seemingly whistling from the middle of whatever pie we were having.
So I want one just for nostalgia’s sake!
Another gift I always enjoy giving and receiving is spring bedding plants, nothing cheers the soul like a tub full of beautiful flowers.
However, these days I wish I had someone to plant them as I seem to have less and less time for the garden.
I may be guilty of having a tray of pansies in my back garden that never got planted last autumn – oops!
Anyway back to the blueberry muffins, my hubby (who doesn’t like or ever eat blueberries) loved them and my son gave them 10 out of 10.
I forgot to ask my daughter but as she ate two I think that’s another thumbs up!

Thank you Helene:-)
Michelle @ Greedy Gourmet
Did you get your pie bird? My kids made cards for me. Hopefully when they grow up it will get a bit better. 😉 Gorgeous looking muffins!
Camilla
Yes I did Michelle, I may have had to give my son a lift to the shops after his sponsored walk on Friday and remind him, but I got it and some Creme Eggs:-) I love homemade gifts, if my son could draw like my daughter I’d be happy with a picture from him too:-)
Amy Fidler
Yummy ideal for easter or whenever x

They look so lovely with the icing like that – like spring has sprung on a plate. You’ve combined three classic muffins into one, great idea!
Camilla
Thank you Claire, they’re so good:-)

This look very tasty, I could make some for my Mum, and then I would get to try them on Mothering Sunday too.

That’s a very good plan Judith:-)
