- Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a twelve-count muffin tin.
- Add Almond Paste (grated using large hole side of a box grater), butter, flour, sugar, baking powder, lemon zest, and salt to a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse until butter and Almond Paste are finely cut into the flour.
- In a medium bowl, beat the milk with the eggs. Add the flour mixture and blueberries. Stir gently until ingredients are just incorporated. Over beating will make a tough muffin.
