Having so many berries in house this time of year, I had to experiment on using more than one kind in a muffin. I was extremely excited when my son who loves my blueberry crumb muffins said, wow these are awesome!~ He loves the combination of flavors.
I did several kinds of berries and made two batches. These were blueberry, blackberry and red raspberry.
These were strawberry, blueberry and blackberry.
This batter isn't very sweet. So then he suggested we ice these babies! I thought why not! Either way they were wonderful!
