Delicious Raspberry Oatmeal Muffins with a balance of sweetness and tartness, perfect for breakfast or a quick snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 1/2 tsps baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 3/4 cups white sugar
  • Lemon zest from 1 lemon
  • 1 cup buttermilk (room temperature)
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tbsp vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups raspberries (+ extra to decorate)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare muffin liners in a muffin pan.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch. Mix well and set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, rub the lemon zest into the sugar to release its fragrant oils, enhancing the flavor.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla until smooth and combined.
  5. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the muffins light.
  6. Carefully fold in the raspberries, taking care not to break them apart.
  7. Scoop the batter into the muffin cups, filling them three-quarters full, and add extra raspberries on top for decoration.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center.
  9. Allow the muffins to cool slightly before transferring them to a wire rack.

Notes

Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature for even mixing and baking. Avoid overmixing the batter for the best texture.
