Everything you’ll need to make Homemade Berry Muffins
It’s berry-picking season here in Connecticut, and if your kids like to ‘help’ like ours do, a quick trip to the orchard can result in more than you bargained for, lol.
You probably already have the base ingredients, and the great thing about this recipe is that you can use whichever kind of berry you like.
What if you don’t have any berries? No problem—you can substitute your favorite chips, chocolate, etc…
If you’re using strawberries, simply cut them into smaller pieces; all other berries can be added whole. (If you do not have fresh berries, frozen will work just fine).
