Marionberry Muffin Recipe: Easy & Delicious
This is the best Marionberry muffin recipe I ever made! Easy to make and delicious, these muffins are perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert.
Equipment
- 1 12 - cupcake or muffin pan
Ingredients
For the Muffins
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 tsp Bourbon optional
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups marionberries or blackberries
Streusel Topping (Optional)
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- pinch of cinnamon optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 and grease your muffin tin with non-stick spray.
- Make the streusel topping if using. Combine all the ingredients with your fingertips until is crumbly and the butter is completely incorporated. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together the eggs, oil, sugars, and vanilla extract. Add Bourbon if using.
- Add baking soda, baking powder, and salt to the all-purpose flour.
- Gradually add the flour to the mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Begin and end with the flour. Fold until just combined.
- Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy to ensure tender muffins.
- Gently fold the Marionberries into the batter. This step ensures the berries are evenly distributed throughout the muffins.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Add streusel on top of each muffin before baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool in the muffin pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
