Mom and I haven't had one of our brunches in a long time, but when we do we usually have some sort of muffins on the table, along with our coffee and stitching and gardening chats. I decided to use up the rest of the frozen blackberries I had this morning, and came up with this...
VANILLA BLACKBERRY MUFFINS
Here's what you'll need:
1/2 c. butter, softened
1-1/4 c. sugar
1 t. vanilla
2 eggs
2 c. flour
2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
1/2 c. milk
2 c. frozen (or fresh) blackberries
Cream the butter, sugar, and vanilla. Add eggs, beating well. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt; stir into creamed mixture, along with the milk. Fold in the blackberries.
Grease a muffin pan and fill the cups 2/3 full of batter. Sprinkle the tops with sugar (and throw a few walnuts on top if you're so inclined). Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until golden and muffiny. (Of course "muffiny" is a word!)
Serve warm, with coffee. :)
Delicious! And oh, so simple.
Love the new blog~~~~ As soon as it will allow me to "follow", I will~~~ LOVE IT!~ Faye
