Timing

Making Raspberry White Chocolate Muffins takes about 15 minutes for preparation and 20-25 minutes for baking.

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat Oven

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with cooking spray.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3: Mix Wet Ingredients

1. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and buttermilk until well combined.

Step 4: Combine Mixtures

1. Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
2. Fold in Raspberries and Chocolate: Gently fold in the raspberries and white chocolate chips.

Step 5: Fill Muffin Tin

1. Fill Muffin Cups: Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.

1. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
2. Cool: Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serve

1. Enjoy: Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a sweet snack!
