Multi Berry Muffin Recipe

This basic muffin recipe is a multipurpose berry muffin recipe that gives you the ability to create several different types of muffins including blue berry muffins, strawberry muffins, and blackberry muffins. This recipe makes batter for 12 muffins.

Before we get into the recipe here is a refresher course on selecting the best berries for use in your muffins recipe.

Blueberries and blackberries should always be dark in color, free of mold, plump, unweathered and wrinkle free.

Great tasting strawberry and raspberries should be bright in color, free of mold and uncrushed.

Additionally, strawberries should always have hulls attached to them.

Berry Muffin Recipe

1 cup milk
1 medium egg
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1 cup berries of choice
1/4 cup all purpose flour

Before starting muffin batter go ahead and preheat your oven to 400 degree Fahrenheit. Lightly grease your muffin tins and set aside.

In a small mixing bowl, combine and stir well milk, egg and vegetable oil.

In another medium mixing bowl, combine and stir together shifted flour, baking powder and sugar. Next combine milk mixture with flour mixture and stir well enough to dampen the flour.

Lastly, gently mix in your berries of choice (blue berries, raspberries, strawberries or blackberries).

Finally, go ahead and spoon muffin batter into prepared muffin pan or tins, filling to about 2/3 capacity. Bake muffins for about 15 minutes, until golden brown.
