This recipe made wonderful muffins. There is just the right amount of sweetness from the sugar, which balances nicely with the Saskatoon berries. I made a double batch and it made 24 muffins. I will make this recipe again, but I will add even more berries as I like muffins with loads of fruit.
Great recipe! I added an extra cup of saskatoons and had to cook the muffins quite a bit longer than stated (probably an extra 10-12 minutes) and they still weren't very brown on the top and tasted a bit dry. I also substituted half of the oil with applesauce, so that may have made a difference.
I used fresh saskatoons and substituted milk with buttermilk and added a tsp of vanilla extract to liquid ingrediants. I baked muffins at 375 degrees instead of 350 for approximately 19-20 minutes. Will make again, thanks for the recipie.
Delicious! Used blueberries and added some orange zest as another person suggested but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Did bake a little longer...about 23 minutes. Turned out beautifully! Will be making these again!
Good basic oatmeal muffin recipe that you could customize by replacing the Saskatoon berries with other things.
Substituted the frozen berries for fresh strawberries. Substituted the baking soda for 3x the amount of baking powder. Increased the baking time by several minutes. Turned out delicious.
I had to substitute Presidents Choice All Purpose Gluten Free Flour for the wheat flour and it worked perfectly. If I had to make a suggestion, it might be to add some lemon zest, vanilla or cinnamon to the base recipe, but it is very good without. I love that I can use my home grown saskatoons in such a great way. My kids are going to love these.
Made the muffins with organic oats and flour. Added 1 1/2 tsp. Vanilla and a heaping teaspoon of cinnamon and a pinch of cardamom. Used butter over oil and increased berries by 1/3 cup. Baked at 375 for 22 minutes. Made 12 and work buddies inhaled them
They were moist and delicious!
I rarely rate recipes below 4 but these were just ok. I had fresh-picked Saskatoons and I used about 1 1/2 c. I also added a tsp vanilla and 1 tsp cinnamon but they were still fairly bland. To be fair, I forgot to put the brown sugar on top before baking but I think it still would need more. Next time I would make a proper streusel of brown sugar, flour, and melted butter to put on top.
