JORDAN MARSH-INSPIRED (BLUEBERRY) MUFFINS from Epicurious

These come from Epicurious. I made half and didn't use blueberries or sprinkle sugar on top. I used 1/2 c. of sweetened dried tart cherries and 1/4 t. almond extract and got seven using 1/4 c. batter for each. I added an additional 1/8 t. salt but they need more. They baked in 19 minutes at 350 degrees F, not 375.

They taste good and are moist when still warm but like almost every muffin I've ever made, these are pretty dry at room temperature. I even added a little vinegar to the milk to make buttermilk to ensure that these were moist but it probably didn't do any good. 

These get 4.5 stars when fresh and warm from the oven and 3 stars after they've cooled down because of how dry they are.
