Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
• 0.75 cups Milk
• 2 units Eggs
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoons Lemon zest
• 1.5 cups Fresh raspberries
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt to combine.

Step 3

In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and let it cool slightly. In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until well blended.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter will be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Carefully fold in the fresh raspberries, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.

Step 6

Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.

Step 7

Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.

Step 8

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Optional: Dust the tops of the cooled muffins with powdered sugar before serving for a touch of sweetness and presentation.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy these delightful Raspberry Lemon Muffins!
