Notes:
I retested the previous blueberry cupcake recipe with less sweetener, and I like this version a lot; possibly even my go to! These kept their dome shape much better. Cupcakes were moist and fluffy. These can definitely be served as “breakfast muffins”. You can increase the sweetener amount to make it more cupcake/dessert-like, and also frost them. Store at room temperature up to 2 days (if they even last that long), or you can keep in the fridge.
