If you have been fruit picking and are lucky enough to have too many raspberries, this is a great recipe for using them up. And if you don’t have fresh raspberries, I’m sure you could use frozen.
Fresh raspberries and the juice and zest from a fresh lemon flavour these muffins. They really are a taste of summer.
Recipe
Ingredients
250g SR flour
½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
125g soft brown sugar
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
125ml light olive oil
100g natural yogurt
2 eggs
200g raspberries
Method
Set the oven to 180ºC and line a 12 hole muffin tray with paper cases. This recipe may make one or two more than 12, depending on how full you want to fill your cases. Mine were almost to the top.
Put the flour, bicarbonate of soda, soft brown sugar and lemon zest in a bowl and mix well.
Mix together the lemon juice, olive oil, yogurt and eggs.
Combine the dry and wet ingredients.
Add the raspberries and mix to distribute evenly.
Divide between the paper cases and bake for around 20 minutes, or until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out dry.
They are delicious still warm if you can’t wait!

They look very delicious, I love the combination of fresh raspberries and lemon.. Well done 🙂
Thank you very much!
They look lovely and fluffy. I’ve been stashing a lot of our raspberry glut in the freezer – I think I need to fish them back out again for a muffin baking binge…
Sounds like a great plan!
They look very very delicious!
Thank you!
They look so perfect! Mine never seem to look as good.
I’ll bet that’s not true!
Raspberry muffins is one of my favourite muffins. Wish I could go berry picking and hoard some berries!
I want to go and get some more but it keeps pouring! Need some good weather!
