- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
For the Lemon Raspberry Muffin Batter:
- 2 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 8 tablespoons (4 ounces) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup full-fat sour cream
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest, finely grated
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract, optional
- 1 and 1/2 cups raspberries
For the Lemon Glaze (optional):
- 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar

Instructions
For the Crumb Topping:
- In a medium bowl combine the flour and sugar. Add in the cubed butter and mix, with a pastry blender or two forks, until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Place in the fridge until needed.
For the Lemon Raspberry Muffin Batter:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees (F). Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners and it set aside.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk together the butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, sour cream, lemon juice, zest, and extract (if using), mixing until ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Add the dry mixture of ingredients to the wet mixture of ingredients and, using a rubber spatula, gently fold until just combined.
- Fold in the raspberries until combined.
- Divide the batter evenly among prepared muffin tins, filling each tin all the way to the top.
- Sprinkle each filled muffin tin mold with a teaspoon or two of the crumb topping.
- Bake for 22 minutes, or until the tops are puffed up and lightly golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, or with a just a few moist crumbs attached. Cool muffins at least 5 minutes in the pan before transferring to a cooling rack.
- Enjoy muffins warm, or store in a covered container for up to 2 days.
For the Lemon Glaze (optional):
- In a small bowl combine the confectioners' sugar, lemon juice, and zest, whisk until smooth, adding more juice as needed to reach desired consistency. Drizzle over the muffins right before serving.
