Clementine, a fabulous little cafe in West Los Angeles, serves a muffin that inspired me to try my own version. - Scarla —Scarla

Test Kitchen Notes

These muffins were tender and moist. The raspberries really added a pop of delicious berry flavor when biting into the muffin and I loved the cornmeal. They tasted like sweet tender cornbread but were lighter, like a muffin. I, of course, had one straight from the oven with butter and was not disappointed. - Marcal —Marcal

Delicious! Loved them sliced open and heated in a skillet with butter!

I've made these multiple times already- with raspberries, with blueberries and with Saskatoon berries. All amazing! I've added a little lemon zest too. I love the texture of the cornmeal and the sour cream balances the sugar so they aren't too sweet.
