Blackberry Muffins
Description
The recipe mixes softened butter and light brown sugar until fluffy, before incorporating eggs, Greek yogurt, milk, and vanilla for moisture and flavor. The dry ingredients – self-raising flour and baking powder – are sifted in and folded gently to retain lightness. Fresh blackberries are partially mixed in, with some placed on top of each muffin for a visually appealing finish and added fruitiness.
Baked at 190°C, the muffins rise evenly and develop a golden surface, delivering a balance of soft texture and fruity pockets. They can be enjoyed at breakfast or as a snack and are best with fresh berries to maintain the ideal texture and flavor.
Use fresh blackberries for optimal taste and texture; if using frozen, thaw fully before adding to the batter.Mix the batter just until combined to avoid dense muffins.Fill muffin cases about two-thirds full for proper rising without overflow.Using muffin liners or greasing the tin aids in easy removal and prevents sticking.
