DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper baking cups. Set aside.

2. Mix flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl. Mix sour cream, milk, oil, egg, orange peel and vanilla in medium bowl. Add to flour mixture; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. (Batter will be thick and slightly lumpy.) Gently stir in blueberries.
