Sweet. Tangy. Juicy. Not your average muffin. These bakery-style Raspberry muffins are simple to make, bursting with raspberries, and are sure to brighten your day!
3cupsAll-purpose Flour + additional 1 tbsp (to add to raspberries)
4tspBaking Powder
pinch of salt
1/2cupVegetable/Canola Oil
1/2cupMilkI typically use 2% m.f. or higher
1 3/4cupsGranulated Sugar
2Eggslarge
1/4cupLemon Juice
1/4cupOrange Juice
1tspVanilla Extract or vanilla bean paste
2 1/2cupsFrozen Raspberries
2tbspDemerara Sugaror other coarse sugar
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F (400F for convection oven). Prepare a muffin tin with 12 muffin liners with either paper liners or non-stick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt to aerate.
Create a well in the centre of the bowl with dry ingredients and add vegetable oil, sugar, eggs, milk, lemon juice, orange juice, and vanilla extract.
Whisk together ingredients until just combined.
In a small bowl, add 1 tbsp flour to the fresh/frozen raspberries. Stir to coat raspberries with flour. Fold raspberries into muffin mixture.
Divide the batter into the 12 prepared muffin cups. Decorate with a few additional raspberries and coarse sugar on top.
Bake at 425°F (400F convection oven) for 8 minutes, then reduce the oven temp to 375°F(350F convection oven) and bake for another ~20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out with a few crumbs attached.
Cool for 5-10 minutes in muffin tins then let cool completely on wire rack (note: I use a butter knife to gently loosen any muffin tops that are stuck to the muffin tin, prior to removal from tin)
Enjoy!
Notes
Sofia’s Tips:
To allow more space for muffins to rise – use two cupcake/muffin trays instead of one - spacing out muffin liners so that only six are used in each tray)
These muffins can be frozen in an air-tight freezer bag for 1-3 months! Simply defrost at room temperature, and warm for a few minutes in a warm oven for that freshly baked muffin warmth!
Enjoy!
