Easy Raspberry Muffins
Description
This recipe creates light raspberry muffins by combining dry ingredients including flour, baking powder, baking powder, orange zest, and salt, with wet ingredients such as vegetable oil, milk, egg, vanilla extract, and sugar. Fresh raspberries are folded in carefully to avoid breaking them and releasing too much juice into the batter. The muffins are portioned into lined muffin cups.
The muffins can be baked in an air fryer or conventional oven, with cooking times ranging from about 12-15 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. The light dusting of vanilla sugar on top adds a subtle sweet crunch. Finished muffins have a tender crumb and gentle raspberry flavor brightened by the orange zest.
Cooling the muffins slightly before removing from the pan helps them keep shape. They suit breakfast, snacks, or light desserts, with a focus on simple ingredients and fresh fruit.
