Description

A staple from my days at the Dragonfly Inn on Nova Scotia’s western shores. This Double Berry Muffin recipe became my go-to standard muffin recipe, packed with berries and finished with sugar and spice.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/3 cup blueberries
  • 1/3 cup cranberries
  • to finish – coarse sugar & nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400° F (205°C). Prep 12- cup muffin tin, greased or lined with paper muffin cups.
  2. In a large bowl add dry ingredients and whisk to combine, add milk, eggs and butter. Mix lightly (fold 3 or 4 times), with batter still slightly dry, then add fruit and fold lightly. DO NOT OVER MIX (this makes for tough muffins).
  3. Fill muffin tins/cups three quarters full. Finish with a sprinkling of coarse sugar & nutmeg for a crisp, sweet muffin top.
  4. Place rack in one notch higher than center in oven. Bake in a preheated 400°F (205°C) oven for up to 20 minutes.

Notes

Modifications: skip the cranberries and double the blueberries and, voila, wicked Blueberry Muffins!
