Lite Sunny Lemon Raspberry Muffins Recipes

LEMON-RASPBERRY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat 12 large (1/2-cup) muffin cups with cooking spray or line with paper liners.
• Use a vegetable peeler to remove the zest from the lemon in long strips. Combine the zest and sugar in a food processor; pulse until the zest is very finely chopped into the sugar. Add buttermilk, oil, egg and vanilla and pulse until blended.
• Combine whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Add the buttermilk mixture and fold until almost blended. Gently fold in raspberries. Divide the batter among the muffin cups.
• Bake the muffins until the edges and tops are golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Add eggs, oil, and zest from the lemon to a mixing bowl. Measure milk in a liquid measuring cup and squeeze the juice from the lemon into it. Set aside for 1 minute, then add to the bowl with the other ingredients and mix to combine.
• In a separate large bowl combine dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Stir the wet ingredients into the flour mixture, being careful not to over-mix the batter.
• Fold in the raspberries.
• Line a muffin tin with liners, or grease with non-stick cooking spray. Fill muffin cups 3/4 full. Bake at 400 degrees F for 16-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with few crumbs.
