Delicious! I used frozen berries, as the fresh aren't available in my area yet. The lemon zest added just the right combination of flavors with the berries. The only addition I made was to sprinkle a little crumble topping on the muffins (I had extra topping left from another recipe). This recipe made fifteen regular-sized muffins for me. I will definitely be making these again and again---Thanks Boyz 5!
