Blueberry Pecan Muffins Using Food Processor image

Entered for safe-keeping, just got a heavy-duty 12-cup food processor. From George Geary's "125 Best Food Processor Recipes". He warns that 1) if the berries are thawed before adding to the batter, they can turn it an unpleasant blue color and 2) if you use butter instead of shortening, your muffins will not be as flaky. The cooled muffins can be frozen in a resealable plastic bag for up to 30 days.

I'm sorry, but these muffins are just not good. I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out terrible.

These muffins are a waste of time and ingredients. They're dry and flavorless.

I had some trouble getting the muffins out of the muffin tins. I think I'll grease the tins more heavily next time.

These muffins are a little too sweet for my taste. Next time, I'll reduce the amount of sugar by 1/4 cup.

I'm not a huge fan of pecans, so I substituted walnuts instead. The muffins still turned out great!

I was a bit skeptical about using a food processor to make muffins, but it actually worked really well. The muffins were evenly mixed and had a great texture.

I've tried many blueberry muffin recipes, but this one is by far the best. The muffins are so moist and flavorful, and the pecans add a perfect touch of crunch. This is my new go-to recipe for blueberry muffins!

These blueberry pecan muffins are a delightful treat! The muffins are moist and fluffy, with a burst of blueberry flavor in every bite. The pecans add a nice crunch and nutty flavor. I will definitely be making these again!
