Trying Other Fruits

These cake or muffins are great with so many fruits but remember to always blot the fruit dry to avoid discoloration in the batter and make it dense and not cook correctly.

These also freeze well, just place them on a cookie sheet, freeze solid and place in freezer bags.

If you're making muffins instead use a muffin pan without liners and always put the fruits on top not folded in.
