Blackberries! Muffins! BLACKBERRY MUFFINS!!!!

The loaf indentation was a knife, but the muffin's is a blackberry!
I had blackberries on hand and wanted to make something! Especially since I leave on Sunday and didn't want them to go bad.

So, I found a blackberry & blueberry muffin recipe here. Yes, I do get almost all of my recipes online, it's simplest that way.

Yet, I changed some of the recipe. So, here's what I did!

1 c. wheat flour
1 c. all purpose flour
1/3 c. oatmeal (I magic bulleted it first)
2/3 c. sugar
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
2 eggs
2 c. half-and-half (I used all the half-and-half I had then of what was left I was half heavy cream half skim milk [I had to work with what I have on hand!])
2 c. blackberries (that's what's called for, I think I had less since I had eaten some already!)

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. 
Butter your muffin pan(s).
Whisk all the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
Whisk the eggs and half-and-half.
Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Fold in the blackberries.
Scoop into muffin tins (I used 2-6 muffin tins and 4-mini loaf pans [again, working with what I've got]).
Bake for 20 minutes (I should checked at about 17). 
MUFFINS!

Would a liar give you mini-loaves?!
(bad paraphrase fromThe Office)
Eat and Enjoy!



mmmmmm!
