These bakery-style muffins can be made in 30 minutes and only 1 bowl.
Tips & Variations:
- Don’t have fresh berries available? Use frozen berries, but no need to defrost them, just toss them in the batter.
- Freezing Instructions: For longer storage, freeze baked muffins for up to 3 months. Allow to thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then bring to room temperature or warm up in the microwave if desired. Glaze before serving
- Yogurt: Feel free to use your favorite even the flavored versions! And if you have extra sour cream available that works too!
