Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and shredded coconut.
In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix – a few lumps are fine.
Gently fold in the raspberries, taking care not to crush them too much.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
