tri-berry muffins

and i'm backkkk. i found this recipe from one of the many barefoot contessa cookbooks we own. thought i'd give this recipe a whirl and take advantage of all the berries we have in our kitchen. and bonus!. the recipe calls for no whole milk, buttermilk etc. any creams that i would have had to go to the store for. boom it's fate i try these ...

recipe

3c flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tbsp. ground cinnamon
1 1/4c milk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1c butter, melted
1c fresh or frozen bluberries
1/2c fresh or frozen raspberries
1/2c fresh or frozen diced strawberries
1 1/2c sugar.

preheat oven to 375 degrees. combine the melted butter, milk and eggs together. then add the baking powder, soda, salt, cinnamon and flour into the mixture. just mix until combined, there should be lumps! add the berries and sugar last. again fold in until well combined. fill the muffin cups almost to the top and bake for 20-25 minutes.

okay wow i realized after typing this recipe out that i made a few mistakes. first off i forgot the sugar. i was going to comment how i thought these needed some sweetness in them, hmm. well don't forget the sugar! secondly i want to emphasize the importance to fill the muffin cups to the brim. this batter doesn't rise much so if you're looking for that nice 'muffin top' fill 'em up. she gives you alot of batter to work with so use it. i thought they tasted very good even without the sugar, and i can now say i've had strawberries in my muffins mmm. enjoy!
