Muffins are a favorite in our house! We eat muffins for breakfast, a snack or dessert. They are just so convenient and versatile.
Our local grocery store had blackberries on a great sale the other day, so it was time to stock up. I love to stock up when prices are good on fruits. Then I wash and freeze the berries for smoothies, hand pies and to use in my best ever blackberry streusel muffins.
This is one of my daughter’s favorites because it has a tangy but sweet taste. The cinnamon and brown sugar streusel topping adds a delicious flavor to the blackberry muffins.
These muffins can be modified by using other fruits.
