Preheat the oven at 350°F and set oven rack in the middle. 

Combine 3/4 cup of milk with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and the zest of one lemon in a small bowl (remember to zest it first).

Beat good two eggs in a big bowl, add 1/2 cup sugar. Melt one stick of butter in microwave 33 seconds at a time. 

Sift 1/2 cup of all purpose flour and 1/4 cup of whole wheat one, 1 1/4 cup of yellow cornmeal  and 2 teaspoons baking powder in a medium size bowl.  Mix. 

In a separate bowl mix 1 teaspoon flour to a heaping cup of frozen blueberries. (Let's try 1/4 cup more)

Mix in 1/3 of dry ingredients to the egg mixture, then the milk, then half of the remaining dry ingredients, then the melted butter, then the remaining flours.  Last the blueberries and mix very lightly.

Use a tablespoon that you  dip in water every time to fill each cup.  Yield 30 to 36 mini muffins.

Bake for 16 minutes.   

Bon appétit!
