Join me to talk about chemical versus physical reactions and make a yummy snack to practice some of the principles. BERRY GOOD BLUEBERRY MUFFINS , By Americas Test Kitchen https://www.americastestkitchen.com/kids/recipes/blueberry-muffins ingredients Vegetable oil spray 3 cups plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, measured separately 1 cup sugar 1 tablespoon baking powder ½ teaspoon baking soda ½ teaspoon salt 1½ cups plain yogurt 2 large eggs 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled 1½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries (do not thaw if frozen) 1 Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray 12-cup muffin tin with vegetable oil spray. 2 In large bowl, whisk together 3 cups flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In medium bowl, whisk yogurt and eggs until smooth. 3 Add yogurt mixture to flour mixture and use rubber spatula to stir gently until just combined and no dry flour is visible. Gently stir in melted butter. 4 In small bowl, toss blueberries with remaining 1 tablespoon flour. Gently stir blueberries into batter. Do not overmix. 5 Use ⅓-cup dry measuring cup to divide batter evenly among muffin cups (use rubber spatula to scrape batter from cup if needed). 6 Place muffin tin in oven and bake until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center of muffin comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. 7 Use oven mitts to remove muffin tin from oven (ask an adult to help). Place muffin tin on cooling rack and let muffins cool in tin for 15 minutes. 8 Using your fingertips, gently wiggle muffins to loosen from muffin tin and transfer to cooling rack. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
