Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 egg
  • 125 g (4.4 oz) Greek yogurt
  • 150 g (5.3 oz) rolled oats
  • 120 g (4.2 oz) flour
  • 50 g (1.8 oz) almond flour
  • 175 g (6.2 oz) raspberry
  • 80 g (2.8 oz) maple syrup
  • 100 ml (3.4 fl oz) milk
  • 3 tbsps butter, softened
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • Confectioner’s sugar (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preparation: Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F), setting up a precise baking environment for optimal muffin creation.
  2. Dry Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly blend wheat flour, almond flour, rolled oats, and baking powder, ensuring a consistent dry base.
  3. Wet Integration: Amalgamate maple syrup, whole milk, softened unsalted butter, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and egg into the dry ingredients, whisking until a smooth, lump-free batter emerges.
  4. Raspberry Infusion: Gently fold fresh raspberries into the mixture, distributing them carefully to maintain their structural integrity.
  5. Muffin Tin Preparation: Lightly grease mini muffin tin with butter or cooking spray, preventing potential adhesion.
  6. Baking Process: Fill each muffin cavity three-quarters full with batter, then place in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, watching for a golden-brown exterior and testing doneness with a toothpick.
  7. Cooling and Finishing: Remove from oven, transfer to a wire rack for cooling, and optionally dust with a delicate layer of confectioner’s sugar for an elegant presentation.

Notes

  • Prep Like a Pro: Measure ingredients precisely and have them at room temperature for smoother mixing and better texture.
  • Fruit Folding Technique: Handle raspberries gently to prevent bruising, ensuring whole berries remain intact throughout the muffin batter.
  • Toothpick Test Master: Insert a clean toothpick into the muffin’s center – if it comes out clean or with minimal crumbs, your muffins are perfectly baked.
  • Storage Savvy: Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days, or freeze for up to 1 month to maintain freshness and flavor.
