Blackberry Muffins

I've been using this recipe to make bluebery muffins for a while now but lately my husband has been on a blackberry kick. With plump, fresh blackberries in my fridge all the time, I just couldn't resist utlizing them in this yummy recipe!

Tips:

• You may use fresh or frozen and defrosted blackberries.
• I chose to cut my blackberries in half, but you can leave them whole if you wish.
• Are you too busy/lazy/tired to make homemade blackberry muffins? Buy a box of blueberry muffin mix and instead of adding the little can of blueberries, add 1/2 cup of fresh blackberries. I won't tell, I promise.

Blackberry Muffins

1 3/4 cup flour

1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
3/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup applesauce
3/4 cup blackberries

Combine dry ingredients and toss together. Add beaten egg, milk, vanilla and applesauce and stir to combine. Gently fold in blackberries. Fill each cup 2/3 the way up in a greased or lined muffin pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 16-20 minutes or until tops are golden brown.
