Categories     Breakfast     Side Dish

Time 29m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups all-purpose flour, properly measured (see note below)
⅔ cup granulated sugar ((or reduce to ½ cup for a slightly less-sweet muffin))
2 tablespoons quick-cooking oats, optional
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¾ cup whole buttermilk, well shaken at room temperature ((or sub with whole milk))
¼ cup (½ of a stick) salted butter, melted and slightly cooled
¼ cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups fresh blackberries
Optional, for topping: coarse sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a standard 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, oats (if using), baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together buttermilk (or milk), melted butter, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined, being careful not to over-mix. The batter may be lumpy, which is fine.
  • Fold in the blackberries.
  • Divide batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup almost to the top. Sprinkle coarse sugar on top, if desired.
  • Bake for 17-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Transfer muffins to a wire rack to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.

BLACKBERRY MINI-MUFFINS OR MINI-CUPCAKES - YOU DECIDE!



Blackberry Mini-Muffins or Mini-Cupcakes - You Decide! image

Blackberries. I love their sweetness and their tartness. I grabbed a few packages for a buck at the store last week. And I just had to make some muffins, or are they cupcakes? I'm not sure what to call them. Because they really could be both. They are that versatile. Now scroll through the delicious-ness and then help me figure out where these little goodies belong in the next cookbook!

Time 26m

Yield 24 mini muffins or 12 regular muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup milk
2 cups white flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups blackberries, halved
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 24 mini-muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • Slice the blackberries in half and place in a bowl with the lemon juice.
  • Add the sugar and toss away. But do so lightly. You don't want to hurt the blackberries!
  • Try your best not to eat 'em up!
  • Prepare the batter in a stand mixer or mixing bowl with hand mixer by beating the butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla and milk until smooth. Then add the flour, baking soda and salt and beat until smooth, about 2 to 3 minutes. Pour some batter into each of the mini muffin wells. Fill about 1/4 full.
  • Add 2 blackberry halves to each well.
  • Be sure to not let too much of the liquid from the blackberry bowl get into the batter. A little is fine.
  • Pour the remaining batter over the top of the blackberries. (I don't mean to SWAY your vote, but this batter was VERY much like cake batter!).
  • Fill up the muffin tins. All the way full is fine!
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 14 to 16 minutes, or until cooked through!
  • Let cool on cooling rack. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • For a richer muffin, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin cups only ⅔ full. This will help prevent the muffins from overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before frosting them.

Conclusion:

These blackberry mini muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. The muffins are also a great way to use up leftover blackberries. So next time you have a few extra blackberries, be sure to try this recipe. You won't be disappointed!
