2. Add oil and sour cream: Pour in the oil and sour cream, and mix until smooth and creamy.

3. Incorporate dry ingredients: Gradually add the flour, baking powder, and baking soda into the mixture, stirring until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

4. Prepare the berries: If using strawberries and blackberries, cut them into pieces roughly the size of a raspberry.

5. Fold in the berries: Gently fold the prepared berries into the batter by hand, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout.

6. Fill the muffin tin: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly. Spoon the batter evenly into each muffin cup.

7. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the tops of the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

8. Serve and enjoy: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve these light and fruity muffins warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the burst of berry goodness in every bite!

Recipe Notes:

• Storage: As these muffins are made with sour cream instead of oil or butter for a lighter texture, they may not stay fresh as long as traditional muffins. Enjoy them on the day of baking for optimal freshness, or freeze any leftovers for later enjoyment.
• Variations: Feel free to customize these muffins with your favorite berries or even add a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dash of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
