Easy raspberry muffins made with fresh or frozen raspberries — a foolproof recipe that delights every time.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all purpose flour (good quality, unbleached, un-bromated, non GMO)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup olive oil light
  • 1 cup yogurt (if using Greek yogurt, add 1 Tbsp milk or buttermilk)
  • cup raspberries whole, washed and dried (if using frozen, be sure they are not completely thawed or mushy) - see notes
  • 1 tsp Demerara sugar (optional - or Swedish pearl sugar, to top)
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  • raspberry muffins ingredients
  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
  • Sift flour, baking powder, and baking soda into a large bowl.
  • Stir in the sugar.
  • In a separate bowl or measuring jug, whisk together: eggs, olive oil, and yogurt, until smooth.
  • Pour the yogurt mixture into the dry ingredients.
  • Slowly stir the yogurt mixture into the dry ingredients in the large bowl, until just combined. DO NOT OVER STIR, it will make the muffins too dense.
  • Gently stir in the raspberries, with just a few turns. (Keep a few aside for putting on top of the muffins, if you like.) Then fill the muffin cups. Sprinkle with a little raw sugar (Demerara), or other sugar, if desired, for a crunchy top.
  • Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes

  • PLEASE use a scale for best results.
  • If using frozen raspberries, the best option is freezing the raspberries yourself. Wash, dry and place on a plastic tray until just frozen, then toss in a freezer-safe bag to use later. This ensures they won't be mushy or stuck together when you use them.
  • If you are making larger muffins or use frozen raspberries, bake for another 5 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean, as ovens vary.
