Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temperature, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 cup 2% milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-3/4 cups plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, divided
  • 2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries
  • Honey, optional

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°. In a bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add egg and mix well. Beat in milk and vanilla until almost smooth, about 1 minute. Combine 1-3/4 cups flour, baking powder and salt; stir into creamed mixture just until combined (batter will be thick). Toss blackberries with the remaining flour until coated; fold into batter.
  2. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups half full. Bake at until muffins are golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Serve warm with honey if desired.
