These muffins are delicious. The lemon zest really brightens and brings out the flavor of the blueberries. I wasn't able to find any good blackberries, so I used all blueberries. These delicious muffins will be a great breakfast treat and how can you go wrong with a blueberry muffin and hot tea in the afternoon.

Wonderful muffins! Not overly sweet so the flavor of the fresh berries can be enjoyed. I love cinnamon and nutmeg flavors so I used a bit less sugar for the topping. Enjoyed with a cup of tea for breakfast and for a late afternoon snack. Will definitely make these muffins again! Made and reviewed for the Culinary Quest 2017 - Wales.

I am a very lucky lady. I recently moved to a very small town in New Brunswick, Canada with my wonderful husband who is my best friend.
Very fortunate to have a cherished son, wonderful daughter in law and adorable granddaughter and cute wee grandson. We are very blessed.
A big thank you to everyone that has made my recipes... hope you enjoyed them.
