Lemon-Raspberry Muffins

This was specifically made for my mother. When I pitched the idea to her, her eyes lit up like a Christmas tree; a combination of her two favorite things, raspberries and lemon! So I dedicate this recipe to my sweet mother.

Muffin Ingredients:

  • 1 3/4 Cups – Flour
  • 1 Cup – Sugar
  • 2 Tsp – Baking Powder
  • 1/4 Tsp – Baking Soda
  • 1/4 Tsp – Salt
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 Cup – Sour Cream
  • 2 Tsp – Vanilla Extract
  • Zest of 2 Medium Lemons
  • 1 Cup – Fresh Raspberries (Be Generous)

Topping Ingredients:

  • 1/4 Cup – Flour
  • 8 Tsp – Sugar
  • Zest of 1 Medium Lemon
  • 2 Tbsp – Melted butter

Preparation:

  • Preheat the oven to 180 Degrees Celsius
  • Prepare your muffin tin; I line mine with muffin wrappers
  • In a bowl, add in your dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda & salt). Give them a stir.
  • In a mixer, add in your eggs, sour cream and vanilla. Mix until well incorporated.
  • Add your dry ingredients to your mixture and combine well.
  • Fold in your lemon zest.
  • Gently fold in the raspberries to avoid breaking them too much.
  • In a separate bowl, prepare the topping by combining the ingredients and mixing them until they create a flakey consistency.
  • Spoon the batter into your muffin tin and sprinkle the topping over
  • Bake for 25-30 min or until they are starting to golden and when you prick it with a toothpick it comes out clean
