Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe cherries for the best flavor. If using frozen cherries, thaw them completely and drain them well before using.
  • Be sure to coat the cherries in a little bit of flour before adding them to the muffin batter. This will help to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the muffins.
  • Don't overmix the muffin batter. Overmixing can result in tough, dense muffins.
  • For a streusel topping that is extra crispy, use cold butter and flour. You can also add a little bit of sugar or spices to the streusel for extra flavor.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can result in dry, crumbly muffins.
