Description
Soft and moist muffins filled with a mix of fresh or frozen berries—perfect for breakfast or a snack.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 to 2 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen: blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
- Optional: coarse sugar or streusel topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Line a 12‑cup muffin tin with liners or grease well.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and both sugars.
- In another bowl, beat eggs with milk, yogurt, oil, and vanilla until smooth.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined—don’t overmix.
- Gently fold in mixed berries.
- Divide batter evenly between muffin cups, filling about 3/4 full.
- If desired, sprinkle coarse sugar or streusel on top.
- Bake 18–22 minutes, until tops are golden and a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Let muffins cool in pan 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
Notes
- Use fresh berries to avoid color bleeding, or toss frozen berries in a little flour before adding.
- Mix in chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or lemon zest for added flavor.
- For lighter muffins, substitute applesauce for some of the oil.
- Do not overbake—muffins stay moist with a few crumbs on the toothpick.
- Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for warmth.
