Meet the Cook: The sour cream makes these muffins so nice and light that you can serve them as a bread with a meal. But, here at our house, I've fixed them for everything from breakfast up to midnight snacks. I grew up on a dairy farm and now live outside a small town with my husband and our children - 17, 12 and 9. -Linda Gilmore, Hampstead, Maryland

Tip

Big Batch Baked Goods

We enjoy homemade baked goods for breakfast, but I don’t have time to bake each morning before school. So I devote 1 day a month to making large batches of cinnamon rolls, doughnuts, cream cheese rolls and muffins. I place them in heavy-duty resealable plastic bags labeled with the date. (They freeze for about 2 months.) On busy mornings, it’s a snap to pop a few in the microwave to warm. The kids love the fresh-baked flavor. —Lori T., New London, Texas

These are just what I was looking for in a moist, flavorful muffin. I made some small " shooters" for a bite-sized treat. Maybe next time some lemon zest.....

Terrific muffins to make for early breakfast - measure out dry ingredients the night before and mix up liquid that morning while oven is heating up. Best eaten that day since the berries tend to make the muffins somewhat soggy.

What an awesome recipe and one that incorporateds goodness in either using raspberries or blueberries. I opted for the raspberries as I had two cups of fresh and used one cup of frozen. This are a fabulously moist recipe and a definite repeat.

The muffins are so good and sooo easy. Measure the ingredients the night before and they are simple & quick to make in the morning...even on a school day!!

Great recipe. I just tweaked a little by mixing blueberries with sour cream first and adding about 1/4 tsp of pure orange extract to it before adding remaining wet ingredients and then dry. Made moist flavorful muffins. Thanks for this recipe.

I made these yesterday, and they are very good. I used a medley of frozen fruits that I had in the freezer, so that made it easier to decide which berries to use! My daughter loves to eat them for a snack, so that makes me feel good to! Thanks again!

I have also made these for years. I just made another batch. However, my recipe calls for 2 tsp. baking powder . That is the only difference. The recipe does make a nice sized muffin. 24 or more per batch.  I bake mine 385 degrees about 20 minutes. 400 is just too hot.

Yummy! I found the baking time to be a bit long. Start checking at 15 mins.
