Raspberry Muffins
Number of Servings: 12
Ingredients:
1½ cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup packed dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ cup butter, melted
1 egg, lightly beaten
½ cup milk
1¼ cups fresh raspberries
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
Directions: Preheat oven to 350°. Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners. Sift the
flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon together
into a medium size mixing bowl and make a well in the center. Place
the egg, melted butter, and milk in the well. Stir with a wooden spoon
just until ingredients are combined. Quickly stir in the raspberries and
