Blueberry Bran Muffins

Toss the blueberries in flour before adding them to the batter; this will allow them to suspend evenly through the muffins instead of sinking to the bottom. Fold the berries gently into the batter to avoid turning it blue. From the book "Mad Hungry," by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Artisan Books).
