Instructions Checklist

  • Whisk buttermilk, oil and vanilla in a medium bowl until well combined. Create a well in the center of the flour mixture; add the buttermilk mixture and stir just until combined. Toss blackberries with the remaining 1/4 cup flour in a small bowl until fully coated. Gently fold the coated blackberries and any excess flour into the batter just until combined.

  • Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups (a heaping 1/4 cup each); sprinkle with almonds and turbinado sugar. Bake until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Let the muffins cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes before serving.

To make ahead

Store, individually wrapped, at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month. To reheat, remove plastic wrap, wrap in a paper towel and microwave on High for 30 to 45 seconds.
