The Best Triple Berry Muffins
You can use fresh or frozen berries for this berry muffin recipe.
If you’re using frozen, you only need to make sure the berries aren’t frozen when you fold them into the muffin batter. If I’m using frozen berries for this recipe (I used frozen in these pics!) put the berries in a bowl and let them thaw. Before you fold them into the batter, drain the excess juice from the bowl and then fold in gently.

These mixed berry muffins are made with 1 1/2 cups of berries If you’re using frozen berries, you can add a little more, and then you’ll have 1 1/2 cups after the berries are thawed.
You can easily substitute the triple berries for blueberries and make the most amazing blueberry frozen berry muffins for brunch or an afternoon snack.
How to Make Sugar-Crusted Muffins
This is the sugar (pictured above) I like to sprinkle on top of any blueberry muffins or these triple berry muffins. It takes just a minute but adds this sweet, crunchy topping to these muffins. This sugar-crusted topping is made with raw sugar. It’s a course sugar granule and kind of melts as the muffins cook.
Just add a teaspoon of raw sugar to your muffins before cooking them. The sugar will melt on top as the muffins bake and make the most amazing sugar-crusted muffin tops.

Triple Berry Muffin Recipe
The triple berries that work best for this recipe are blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries. It’s best if you don’t use a berries mix with strawberries. They have much higher water content and your muffins will turn out a little soggy. Stick to the smaller berries, and you’ll have a much better end result.
Mixed Berry Muffins Recipe Variations
- This is easily customizable to blueberry muffins. Simply substitute the mixed berries for fresh or frozen blueberries.
- If you’re using frozen blueberries, simply let them thaw, drain the liquid, and fold them into your batter.
- I’ve used flavored Greek yogurt before, and it’s turned out great. Plain Greek Yogurt is best, but just about anything will do.
- I’ve also used gogurts and sour cream or a mixture for the substitution.
- These would also be great with a lemon glaze on in place of the raw sugar. So many possibilities!
Triple Berry Muffins Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1½ cups plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 1½ cups blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries, fresh or frozen
- 1/2 cup Sugar-in-the-Raw
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease or line 24 muffin tins with paper liners and set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, sugar, eggs, and melted butter.
- Add the flour mixture to the yogurt mixture and fold together until just combined—the batter will be pretty stiff. Finally, fold in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and mixed berries.
- Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tins, about 3/4 of the way to the top. Sprinkle the top of each muffin with about 1 teaspoon of raw sugar.
- Bake in your preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack. Enjoy!

The recipe says serves 12 but then says to line 24 muffin cups. I don’t know which is the error
You never mentioned the actual adding of the berries?
Your video instructions were different than the written! Sugar w dry in video and sugar with wet in written. ????
Either way works great!

Haha, yup, I’m a muffin lover too! They’re the muffins. They’ve been a favorite for a long time! Glad you liked them!
Hi
Can these be frozen if you are using fresh fruit?
Thanks
Maggie
You bet! They’re better if they’re eaten within a couple of days of making them but yes, you can freeze them if needed.
