Recipe Description

These Breakfast Muffins combine fresh blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries to create the ultimate treat for this back-to-school season. These muffins aren’t heavily sweetened with refined sugar and use just a touch of honey to accentuate the natural sweetness of the berries. It’s summer in a muffin!

You need just one bowl and a standard 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners to make these muffins. To start, mash a banana with a fork. Next, add in the wet ingredients, followed by the dry ingredients. Don’t overmix. Finally, fold in the berries. Could you use frozen berries in this recipe? You absolutely could! If you use frozen berries, don’t thaw them and toss them with a tablespoon of flour before adding to the batter. Now, scoop and bake your muffins. Cool the muffins on a wire rack and serve.

To make these Breakfast Muffins, you will need the following ingredients:
