I love a good muffin especially with a cup of tea! I don’t make a lot of cherry recipes because I don’t care for them, however my family loves cherries. I got a bag of sweet cherries from the grocery store which were perfect for this recipe. These muffins are delicious, easy to make, and you can freeze them so you’ll have delicious cherry muffins to enjoy any time you’d like!
