   Frozen blueberries: I prefer using frozen blueberries (rather than fresh) in baked goods because it helps prevent the berries from sinking to the bottom. Also, if you're making these muffins outside of blueberry season and frozen berries are all that's available, frozen berries that have been thawed have a tendency to bleed, turning the baked goods blue (which doesn't really matter so much in these muffins since their color is brown, but it can be a bit off-putting in lighter colored baked goods). If fresh blueberries are in season, you can use them; however, just be sure to gently toss them with a small spoonful of flour before adding them to the batter. Alternatively, you can flash-freeze fresh blueberries and not worry about tossing them with a little flour.
