Blackberry & Raspberry Muffins
Fruity blackberry and raspberry muffins for your cake tin, perfect for after school snacks, or why not serve them warm with custard for an easy weeknight pudding!
BLACKBERRY & RASPBERRY MUFFINS
When blackberries are in abundance, we pick kilo's and kilo's in the field behind our house. Although we all love a blackberry and apple crumble, sometimes you need to change it up a bit. That's how these muffins came about.
The kids helped make the muffins and they went down really well at snack time.
I've also served the muffins warm out of the oven, with custard, for a quick and easy pudding.
The recipe uses half wholemeal flour and half white flour, making them a bit healthier.
TOP TIPS FOR MAKING BLACKBERRY & RASPBERRY MUFFINS
- Try different fruit combinations. I've used blackberry and raspberry here but you could just use one type of fruit or try blueberries and strawberries.
- If you don't have wholemeal flour, plain white flour is fine.
- These muffins freeze really well so make a double batch and freeze half for when you need a quick and easy snack.
- Try not to overmix the muffin mixture, as it will make the muffins tough in texture.
