Fruity and sweet, these berry muffins are luscious. The muffins have crunchy sugary muffin tops and when you break into them they are filled with beautiful colors of red and blue. They have a rich aroma of coconut, cinnamon, vanilla, and whiskey that adds so nicely to the fresh fruit. These are quite delicious served warm and spread with a little butter. Yummy!
Note: Be sure to use a sharp knife to cut around the muffins when they first come out of the oven. Pop them out of the tin and let them cool on a wire rack.

How to Make All American Muffins
- Bake at 425 for 5 mins, then reduce to 375 and bake for an additional 25-26 mins until golden brown (you may have to bake longer if you are using the jumbo muffin tin). The initial burst of heat to an almost totally filled muffin tin is what's going to gives us those nice, high, gourmet bakeshop-type muffin tops.
