Fresh blackberries are always an invitation to bake something delicious! When I recently purchased some blackberries at our local farmer's market, I made Blackberry Muffins as soon as I got home. Today, I am sharing my personal blackberry muffin recipe here so you, too, can enjoy this delicious treat.
My recipe makes 18 muffins which seems like a lot at first glance. However, it didn't take my family long to devour these delicious muffins.
For either of us, when we pair these muffins with coffee, we are in a
breakfast feast heaven. While I would normally say that the serving
size is one muffin, in our home, the serving size is two or more
muffins. They really are that good!
The Muffin Batter & Muffin Tins
This is a muffin recipe, not to be confused with cupcakes. The muffin batter is thicker and won't pour like a cake batter. I "spoon" my muffin batter into muffin tins. I bake them in non-stick muffin tins, therefore paper liners are not required. I do grease the non-stick tins with Crisco shortening and these muffins turn out easily.
