Our family is busy getting ready for a big wedding this weekend. The happy couple has requested a brunch be held here on the farm the day after the wedding, so the boys and I have been testing all kinds of yummy brunch recipes! I've volunteered to do some egg casseroles and quiches, a basket of assorted muffins, a fruit tray, and a bloody mary bar (my fav!)
From all our taste testing, I've found some DELICIOUS muffin recipes that I cannot wait to share with you! So for the next couple weeks I'll be doing
MUFFIN MONDAYS!
That made me laugh hysterically just typing that... In any event, you can look forward to some amazing muffin creations here on Mondays. If you have any favorite muffin recipes of your own, I'd love for you to share them!
Here's the first one I took for a test drive:
Lemon-Raspberry Muffins
Here's what you'll need:
Combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 Tbsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt in a large bowl.
In another bowl, lightly beat 2 eggs
and add 1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup canola oil
and 1 tsp grated lemon zest.
Stir the wet ingredients into the flour mixture until moistened.
Fold in 1 1/4 cups raspberries.
Fill 18 muffin cups 2/3 of the way full. I like to use an ice cream scoop for this.
And if you only have 1 muffin pan and are super impatient like I am, do mini muffins too!
Bake muffins at 400F for about 18-20 minutes.
Delish! The muffins have a wonderful tart flavor and just the right amount of sweetness. And the bright pink pop of color from the raspberries just screams "Summertime"!
