Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 0.75 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups fresh or frozen raspberries
- 0.25 cup powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the raspberries gently with a spatula to avoid breaking them apart too much.
Evenly distribute the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the muffins cool for 5 minutes in the pan. Then transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the muffins with powdered sugar before serving for a touch of sweetness.
