Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Saskatoon berries (fresh or frozen)
- 2 tablespoons Coarse sugar (optional, for topping)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the tin lightly.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg lightly. Stir in the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until combined.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Use a spatula to gently fold the mixture together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the muffins dense.
Step 5
Gently fold in the Saskatoon berries, taking care not to burst them while mixing.
Step 6
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full. Sprinkle the tops with coarse sugar for added sweetness and texture, if desired.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your flavorful Saskatoon Berry Muffins!
