Don’t you just love the smell of fresh baked muffins?
They are perfect for breakfast or dessert.
I LOVE fresh cherries adding them into a delicious muffin is just ONE of my favorite ways to enjoy them.
I’ve made many cherries recipes…
take a look at my Cherry Lime Curd, Cherry Syrup, Cherry Italian Cream Soda, Cherry Margaritas and Cherry Scones.
I add a bit of turbinado sugar to the tops of the muffins before baking, I love a little crunch on top of muffins.
Fresh baked muffins are great to bring to new neighbors, a delicious thank you, or to bring to someone on the weekend to enjoy with a cup of coffee. They are great to serve at brunch too.
Really there is no wrong time for muffins!
Don’t wait to grab a bag of cherries and get baking!
