"This was originally a Taste Of Home recipe that I found on Bunny's Warm Oven Blog. She adapted it a little and I made it her way using lemon and milk. These muffins are extremely delicious, light, moist and the lemon glaze gives them a little bit of sweet, while the blueberry taste shines through. There's also the crunch from the pecans, which I love. I cut the recipe in half and then froze the leftover muffins for later. I don't think you will be disappointed if you try these. You just might be instantly hooked just like I was!"
