Raspberry Muffins

It's raspberry time.

Time to enjoy all the sweet tastes 

that Summer has to offer.

A delicious Muffin

 perfect any time of day

 for breakfast or snack.
I took this recipe from
an old Five Roses Cookbook.

Preheat oven to 400deg. F

In a bowl, whisk together

2 cups flour

3 tsp. baking powder

pinch of salt.

1/2 cup sugar

Zest of one lemon.

In another bowl mix together:

2 eggs beaten

1 cup milk

1/4 cup melted butter 

Pour the egg mixture into the 

flour mixture and stir quickly until 

ingredients are just mixed and

batter is lumpy in appearance.

Fold in  1 cup lightly floured Raspberries. 

(Blueberries or Cranberries may be used also.)

Fill muffin tins 2/3 fill.

An ice cream scoop works well for filling

 Bake in 400 deg. ~ 15-20 mins.

Makes 1 doz. large muffins.

tip:

The secret of good muffins is to stir the batter until the flour is just dampened.

The batter should be lumpy. Over mixing causes tunnels and a tough texture.

Perfect muffins are light and tender with rough shiny golden crusts.
