Ingredients

Muffins

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (250g)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (200g)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • ¼ cup salted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups raspberries (fresh or frozen)

Streusel topping

  • cup all-purpose flour (83g)
  • cup granulated sugar (66g)
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • teaspoon salt
  • 4 Tablespoons cold salted butter, cubed

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Prepare muffin tin by spraying with baking spray or lining with cupcake liners.
  • In a large bowl, whisking together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, oil, buttermilk, and vanilla.
  • Add the liquids to the flour mixture, stirring with a spoon just until no streaks of flour remain.
  • Gently fold in raspberries (toss frozen berries in 2 teaspoons of flour to keep them from “bleeding” into the muffin batter).
  • Divide muffin batter evenly into the prepared muffin pan. Cups will be very full.
  • In a small bowl, make the streusel by stirring together the flour, sugar, salt, and ginger. Cut the butter into flour mixture using a pastry cutter until it resembles coarse crumbs. Pick up the streusel mixture by handfuls and give it a squeeze to form small clumps. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of streusel over each muffin.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out with only a few moist crumbs attached. Cool completely then store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • For a different flavor and texture, leave off the streusel and instead sprinkle the muffins with sliced almonds.
