Lemon Raspberry Streusel Muffins

Ingredients

  • 6 oz lemon yogurt (I used Greek yogurt in this batch and it worked well - use whatever flavor you want!)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup oil (I always substitute at least 1/2 of this amount with applesauce, sometimes all of it. If you replace all the oil with applesauce, it will make them more dense and a little chewy but they are still delicious)
  • 2 cups flour (I often replace half of this amount with whole wheat flour)
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries (I used a 6 oz container of fresh raspberries
  • Streusel Topping
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 2 Tbsp. butter

Preparation

Step 1

Mix yogurt, eggs, sugar and oil and then add the dry ingredients and stir until well mixed. Fold in raspberries and fill muffin cups 3/4 full. (This recipe makes about 18 regular sized muffins.)

Make Streusel Topping:
Blend with a fork to cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle topping over batter and bake at 400 for 18-22 minutes.
