Blackberry Muffins with Lemon Glaze

Welcome back for the finale of our Cooking with Astrology “Virgo” meal.  These Blackberry Muffins with Lemon Glaze are absolutely delicious!!!  I love the texture and flavor. These are truly bakery style muffins.  I think it has something to do with beating the butter and sugar together for 4 minutes!

Let’s be honest, how many of you actually do that when you make muffins?  I haven’t in the past, but I sure will now.

These muffins remind me of a sponge cake.  They hold together really well and have just the right amount of blackberries, and the glaze…perfect!

How to make Blackberry Muffins with Lemon Glaze:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray muffin tin with cooking spray or line with paper liners. I used these Tulip Baking Cups. {affiliate link}

In a large bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In another large bowl, beat together granulated sugar and butter until light and fluffy with a hand mixer, about 4 minutes…..

Beat in the eggs one at a time, beating well to combine. Stir in the milk and vanilla…..

The butter and milk separate a bit, but don’t worry, it will all mix together in a minute. 😉

Slowly add the flour mixture, blend well…..

Gently fold in the blackberries…..

Scoop or spoon the batter into muffin cups, to about 2/3rds full…..

Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center…..

Lay a sheet of wax paper under a wire cooling rack. Place muffins on rack and allow to cool.

Whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice together in a small bowl to make the glaze. Drizzle over muffins and serve…..
