Muffin Tops with Balsamic Berries and Texas Olive Oil - Texas Hill Country Olive Co.

Before you have to ask: no, we're not talking about those muffin tops! We're talking about the delicious pastry that is solely the best part of the muffin - the top!

If you've never had one of these yummy goodies before, you're in for a treat. They're packed with flavor, and perfect for a breakfast on the go.

But what makes our muffin tops different? We use our Sola Stella Extra Virgin Olive Oil in our batter and our Raspberry Balsamic Vinegar in our berry medley!

Besides being a healthier alternative to butter, the Sola Stella EVOO also adds a buttery, rich, slightly fruity flavor to the muffin tops, 

AND these balsamic berries are a game changer. Our raspberry balsamic vinegar is a sweet and tangy vinegar that adds a subtle complexity of flavor to the mixed berries, especially when added to muffin tops (or even on their own!).

So keep following along to learn how to make this delicious recipe!
