Triple Berry Muffins

Here's a great recipe for muffins that we like to bake here at home.  They're easy to make, and so very moist.  We use frozen berries, and like to mix them up.  Raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries all work well here.  Just be sure to rinse the frozen berries in a colander until the water runs clear. Otherwise, your muffins will turn a funny shade of blue!

6T unsalted butter

3/4 t vanilla

1 1/2 c flour

Crumble Topping

Melt butter in saucepan over low heat.  Remove from stove, whisk in milk, egg, yolk, and vanilla.

In large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.  Add milk mixture and stir.  Fold in berries and jam.

In second bowl, make topping by combining cold butter, flour and sugar with fingers, pinching until a coarse crumb forms.
