Gluten Free Blackberry Muffins

Makes 6 muffins or 12 cupcakes

The blackberries in this recipe make for a nice seasonal burst of fruity flavour. If blackberries aren't available, raspberries or blueberries would work just as well.

Lovely recipe to use up foraged blackberries, easy enough for kids to help. We didn't have vanilla so used mixed spice instead & brown sugar instead of caster so they have a lovely autumnal taste. You only need half the amount of blackberries though (unless the rest are to snack on while the muffins cook ;) )
