Ingredients for Berry Cream Muffins

  • All Purpose Flour
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Frozen Raspberries
  • 2 large eggs

How to Make Berry Cream Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 4 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. Gently fold in 2 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen).
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup sour cream, ½ cup vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fill the prepared muffin cups about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
