Mine were a mess, too.Tasted ok, but the consistency was odd. Makes me think that the quantities were wrong. Plus, there was too much for a muffin tin. Won't make these again.

Recipe Clarifications Needed

I haven't tried the recipe yet, but it sounds and looks good. My question is, what size muffin cup should be used? Also, based on other comments, the amount of flour may be wrong. I hope we get get answers while the blueberries are in season.

Well, I used the larger muffin tin and they weren't big enough--made at least 8. Personally, I didn't think they were good enough to waste a pint of blueberries. The whole recipe seemed messed up (and I really do know how to cook!).

blueberry cakelets

I used an antique muffin tin which has 9 cups. The recipe is like a blueberry pudding. I baked about 5 minutes longer than the 25 suggested. Cooled only until I could handle the pan with no potholders. No problems with the recipe, but grease bubbled over and made a mess of the oven. ugh! Yummy dessert, however.

I just made these, and they were a mess. Too runny, and ran over pan and into my oven. I cooked an extra 5 mins, but they still didn't turn out. I think there is a mistake in the recipe.

I actually thought I had lost my baking touch with these cakelets....they were a soupy mess...I even tried them a second time with ramekins, but had the same mess.( I even had a fire in my oven from the butter spilling out). I believe the recipe is wrong..too much butter and not enough flour. The photo sure did look good though!!!

We apologize for the mistake. The corrected recipe calls for 3/4 cup blueberries total (2 Tbsp in each muffin cup), and does not include folding any blueberries into the actual batter. Follow this link to the full corrected recipe.

Here's to better baking experiences, and once again, please excuse our mistake.

Disappointed that I didn't see the corrected version till too late. Lots of trouble for such a mess. Who proofreads/tests these recipes?

Don't try unless the flour/egg/butter ratio changes. Get a reliable upside down pineapple cake recipe and modify!

More changes needed

I don't think the corrections in the recipe will solve the problems I had with this recipe. I think there's way too much butter in the batter. How disappointing.

Blueberry Cakelets

When I had this recipe all mixed and ready to go, I thought it didn't look quite right (thinking it needed more flour or something). I should have trusted my instincts instead of the recipe. I wondered if there would be something on the internet about this recipe and alas there's a correction, but even then the correction is in the comments section - it should be in bold red print with the actual recipe!
