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

I loved this recipe. I followed it step by step. The only thing I will do different next time is reduce the blackberries and cut them in half first. This was very moist, perfectly sweet and tasted amazing with butter brushed on it.

The flavor is wonderful. Mine don't color up though. The tops are white and the bottoms are almost burnt. It may be my pan so I'll try again.

Excellent muffin! Modifications were minor. 350 convection oven, less than 1 cup of sugar and less than 2 cups of blackberries. Outstanding! Thank you!

Really fantastic muffin! Thanks Julee. My only modifications are: overn temp was 325 (I have convection oven) and a little less than one cup for sugar and a little less blackberries too. Outstanding! :)

I made the recipe exactly as written with fresh picked blackberries and it was wonderful! Very moist and flavorful. I think it would work well with just about any berry. Definitely a keeper!

I didn't have butter so I used 1/2 cup of unsweet applesauce instead and they turned out wonderful! Had a lot of wild blackberries, so I used a little more than called for :)

I added 2 tsp of lemon zest to this recipe, and made a topping of 4 tbs. unsalted butter, 1/3 C. flour, and 1/2 c. sugar. They go fast!
