Grease and flour muffin tins. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Gradually stir in flour mixture until blended. Fold in blueberries and nuts. Spoon batter into muffin tins. Bake for 30 mins or until cake tester comes out clean. Remove from oven and cool.

If you are using frozen blueberries, baking time may increase.
