Servings: 15

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 small lemon juiced and zested
  • 1/2 cup oil vegetable or canola
  • 1 1/2 cups raspberries fresh or frozen
For the glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, oil, and lemon zest. In a liquid measuring cup, measure the milk and squeeze the lemon juice into it. Let it sit for 1 minute, then add it to the bowl with the other ingredients and mix to combine.
  2. In a separate large bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, being careful not to overmix the batter.
  3. Gently fold in the raspberries.
  4. Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with non-stick cooking spray. Fill the muffin cups about ¾ full. Bake at 400°F for 16-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few crumbs.
For the glaze:
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. (If you prefer a thinner glaze, add an additional tablespoon of lemon juice.) Allow the muffins to cool for a few minutes before drizzling with the glaze.

Notes

Berries: You can use either fresh or frozen raspberries, or substitute with a different type of berry such as blueberries, blackberries, or diced strawberries.
Freezing Instructions: Once the muffins have cooled completely, freeze them in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 3 months. To thaw, let them sit at room temperature, or warm them in the microwave for a few seconds.
Note: The nutritional label does not include the glaze.
