This is an update post for one berries muffin recipe that I used to like a lot!
It is simple to make, and gives really moist and soft crumbs. Not to forget mentioning about the high tops this muffin recipe is going to give you! I sort of forgotten about this recipe because I seem to be always on the search for that elusive muffin recipe haha!

For this recipe, on the day of baking, you will get crusty tops and soft inside. The perfect muffin!
Enjoy these muffins freshly baked 🙂
If you leave it overnight, the tops of the muffins will soften and develop more flavor. I guess it might work if you’d pop the muffins into the oven for a few mins to try to get the crusty tops again.
Feel free to use a mix of your favourite berries – raspberries, blueberries, strawberries!
What Is Buttermilk?
Buttermilk is a dairy product similar to yogurt (cultured milk). It carries a tangy rich taste, and imparts flavor and richness to baked goods which uses this as part of the ingredients.
You can also use milk and vinegar for a quick substitute for buttermilk. You can see this in the recipe notes below.
