Oh, it’s Saskatoon season folks!! My favorite time of year! While they aren’t quite ready in my neck of the woods, I sure have been hearing from you all through email and messages how you are making pies!
This is also the time of year everyone is reading my Old Fashioned Saskatoon Pie recipe, so make sure to take a peek at it!
Mmmm, there is nothing better than a fresh Saskatoon berry pie! I’ll be baking one up as soon as I get out picking berries!
These muffins combine my love of Saskatoons and white chocolate together, which in my opinion, is the best combination for Saskatoon berries. They are perfect with white chocolate – and I am a dark chocolate kinda gal.
Hmm. Perhaps there’s a dark chocolate and Saskatoon recipe coming soon… These are a perfect way to enjoy the bounty of Saskatoon berries that we enjoy this time of year! Other than fresh, of course..with cream and sugar. Oh, is that a taste of my childhood right there!
So who is heading out to pick Saskatoons? There are a ton of UPicks around if you don’t want to traipse through the woods to forage your own and I suggest you pick a weekend and get out there! I always try to stock up my freezer for the year and of course, make some Saskatoon jam!
Happy Baking everyone!
Love,
Karlynn

How would you change the recipe for mini muffins?
Clay Pendleton says
I ordered a small Saskatoon tree from a nursery years ago but it died. Our soil is very alkaline where I live; very hard to keep the soil in the proper acidic condition for proper growth. Here in the states I believe they are also called Juneberries or Serviceberries. This looks like a great recipe for wild
huckleberries. They are in our mountain ranges and are more easily available. Wild blueberries as well as wild Lingonberries would also be a good choice. I will try and see if I can get some frozen Saskatoon berries some time.
The Kitchen Magpie says
They are called serviceberries here, for sure! You can substitute almost any berry into these, for sure!
The Berry Barn says
These sound amazing!!!
The Kitchen Magpie says
White chocolate goes with everything!
I’d try other berries for sure.
Clay Pendleton says
Can’t get Saskatoon berries but would assume Huckleberries are very similar or even the same type of wild berries?
Richard Reid says
