Important Tip for making these amazing mixed berry muffins
The most important thing is to gently mix the wet and dry ingredients, being careful not to overstir. The batter shouldn’t be smooth like cake batter. Over-stirring makes for some very tough muffins.

- 3 eggs
- 3/4 cups whole milk
- ½ cup greek yoghurt
- 1 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh strawberries
- OR 2 cups fresh frozen mixed berries

How to make the best bakery style muffins with cake mix
In a large bowl mix the eggs (room temperature) milk, greek yoghurt, melted butter, vanilla extract. Add the mixed berries. You can use either fresh berries, or the frozen berries. I’ve set out the quantities in the recipe card below. These are your wet ingredients.
In a medium bowl sift the boxed cake mix. This is your dry ingredients.
Carefully stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, just enough to blend.
Using a cookie scoop or ice cream scoop, drop the muffin batter into the muffin cups.
Place the muffin pan in the centre of a preheated oven and bake for the specified time.
Place on a wire rack to cool, and store in an airtight container.
These muffins freeze really well, I usually pop a half dozen into a zip lock bag.
