Notes

To make one muffin: 1 package of mix, 1/2 Tbsp butter, 2 Tbsp milk (or almond milk), 2 Tbsp blueberries (fresh or frozen), nonstick cooking spray. Coat a microwave-safe mug with spray. Add mix, butter, and milk; stir until just combined. Gently fold in blueberries. Microwave on high 60 to 90 seconds, until the top is set. Serve warm with butter or maple syrup if desired.
Gluten-free version: 1/4 cup oat flour instead of all-purpose flour, same other dry ingredients; finish with 1/2 Tbsp coconut oil or butter, 2 Tbsp Greek vanilla yogurt, 1 to 2 Tbsp frozen blueberries. Mix and microwave as above.
Storage: dry mix airtight in a cool, dry place up to 6 months; leftover muffin refrigerated within 2 hours, use within 3 to 4 days.
