Lemon Raspberry Muffins
- These are so good, I could only get an,"Mmm" out of my two-year old! The lemon really brings out the freshness of the raspberries. Each bite is filled with flavor, some of the raspberries staying tart and some sweetening just a bit. If you can’t find the whole-wheat pastry flour, all-purpose flour can be used in its place.

Preparation
- Coat 12 large muffin cups with cooking spray or line with paper liners.
- Use a vegetable peeler to remove the zest from the lemon in long strips. Combine the zest and sugar in a food processor; pulse until the zest is very finely chopped into the sugar. Add buttermilk, oil, egg, and vanilla and pulse until blended.
- Combine the whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Add the buttermilk mixture and fold until almost blended. Gently fold in raspberries.
- Divide the batter among the muffin cups. Bake the muffins until the edges and tops are golden, about 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before turning out on to a wire rack. Serve warm.
- Wrap each in plastic and freeze in a freezer bag for up to 1 month. To re-heat, remove plastic, wrap muffin in a paper towel and microwave for 30 to 60 seconds.
