This is a recipe that I got from a friend, but I changed a few things. I get frozen cherries at Trader Joe's, and they're perfect in these muffins-fresh are delicious, but so expensive, and I'd rather eat those right out of the bowl. Read more . This may seem like a lot of ingredients, but they're really easy to make, and SO good. Ingredients:
2 cup flour |
1 cup whole wheat flour |
3/4 tsp salt |

1 1/2 cup buttermilk |
3 eggs |
1 1/2 tbs lemon juice |
1 tbs vanilla |
1 tbs almond extract |
4 tbs butter -- melted; or canola oil |
2 1/4 cup cherries -- not defrosted if frozen; pitted and sliced; or 1 cup dried cherries |
