Delicious Blackberry Muffins

Ingredients

All-purpose flour

2 cups

Granulated sugar

3/4 cup

Baking powder

2 teaspoons

Salt

1/2 teaspoon

Milk

1 cup

Vegetable oil

1/3 cup

Egg

1, large

Vanilla extract

1 teaspoon

Fresh blackberries

1 cup, gently washed and drained

Turbinado sugar

for topping (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
5. Fold in the fresh blackberries with a spatula, taking care not to crush them.
6. Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full to allow for rising.
7. If desired, sprinkle the tops of the muffins with turbinado sugar for a delightful crunch.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
9. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
