Raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries are the name of the game with these light and moist muffins, which have an almost cake-like texture. Lemon zest adds citrusy undertones, and almond butter lends richness. Save some berries for sprinkling on top and fold the rest in with the mix. Every mouthful explodes with plump berry goodness! Make an extra batch to store in the freezer to enjoy for breakfast, a snack, or even dessert.
