Raspberry Lemon Muffins

By Addie

I collect bread and muffin recipes, and this is one of my favorites. You can easily substitute fresh or frozen blueberries for the raspberries if you prefer. Plus, these muffins freeze well, so they're easy to have on hand.—Georgia Carruthers, Livonis, Michigan

REVIEW:

I made these on Sunday to bring into work on Monday. They were delicious! Everyone liked them. I baked them for 5min, pulled them out to pop in a raspberry in the top of each one and then placed them back in the oven to finish baking.
