Buttermilk Raspberry Muffins
  • 114 g Unsalted Butter melted
  • 200 g White Sugar
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 120 ml Full-Fat Buttermilk
  • 60 ml Full-Fat Sour Cream
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • 240 g All Purpose Flour measured correctly †
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 0.5 tsp Salt
  • 2 cups Fresh Raspberries

Equipment

  • Cupcake Tin
  • Medium Cookie Scoop

Method
 

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, add the flour, sugar and salt. Whisk to combine well.
  2. Pour the melted butter into the dry mixture and mix with a fork until well combined, and the mixture resembles sand. Set aside.
  3. Add the melted butter, white sugar, eggs, buttermilk, sour cream and vanilla to a large mixing bowl, and beat with a whisk until it has formed a smooth consistency.
  4. In a separate bowl, add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until well combined, then add this dry mixture to the wet mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon, until just combined, ensuring not to over mix. Fold in the raspberries.
  5. For tall muffin tops: Cover the muffin batter and place into the fridge to rest for 4 hours to overnight.
  6. Preheat oven to 425°F. Prepare a cupcake tin with liners.
  7. Evenly disperse the batter into the cupcake liners with a medium cookie scoop while being careful not to deflate the batter.
  8. Sprinkle the streusel topping on top of each muffin. Place into the 425°F oven, bake for 6 minutes, and then turn the oven temperature down to 350°F, and bake for an additional 12 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

Notes

For best results, measure flour correctly using a spoon to scoop it into the measuring cup, then level off with a straight edge. Avoid overmixing to ensure tender muffins. For a different flavor profile, try using blueberries instead of raspberries.
