Can someone please explain to me why I don’t make muffins very often?
What is my problem? They’re like cake. For breakfast. What’s not to love?
Maybe it’s the lack of frosting? Good thing I topped these with some streusel.
Please forgive the weird photos. I’m playing around with studio lighting and I haven’t quite figured it out yet. Cross your fingers that I figure it out before I get frustrated and throw the softboxes across the room, yeah?

Kathee says
These look incredible, streusel is possibly my favorite thing ever, but with blackberries? Come on!!! Can’t wait to make these!!
Danijela says
I have the same problem. I love muffins, but for some reason I usually just make normal sized cake. These muffins are fantastic. And yes, pictures look great, there’s nothing wrong with them. 😉
Jocelyn says
I am down with cake for breakfast:-) My daughter requests muffins all the time, so this will be a fun one to change up the ones I usually do!! Your lighting looks great. What kind of softboxes do you have?
Joanne says
Anytime my lighting moves even a centimeter, I feel like I need to readjust every aspect of my photo-taking. SO frustrating. I’m sure you’ll figure this out soon though! And if you don’t…just stress-eat a few muffins. That’s what they’re there for.
Dorothy @ Crazy for Crust says
I think the photos are perfect! And when you put it that way…I need to make muffins more often too. 🙂
Katrina @ Warm Vanilla Sugar says
So delicious looking. I haven’t had blackberries in the longest time, but am totally craving them now. Especially in muffin form 🙂
Jennifer @ Not Your Momma's Cookie says
I don’t eat enough muffins…or blackberries…or streusel….sounds like this recipe will solve many problems in my life 🙂
