Tips to Make Buttermilk Raspberry Muffins
  • Make sure your butter isn’t too hot when you mix it with the other wet ingredients; otherwise, it can cook the eggs.
  • Gently fold in the raspberries to keep their shape and avoid turning your batter purple!
  • Feel free to swap out the raspberries for other berries like blueberries or chopped strawberries if you want a different flavor.
Variation
For a delightful twist, you can add lemon zest or a sprinkle of cinnamon to the batter. This will enhance the flavor and add a lovely aroma to your muffins!
