This summer, my raspberry bushes had a truly bountiful harvest. I could barely keep up with picking them. Usually, I just freeze the raspberries so that I can have a taste of summer all year long. Thankfully, I have lots of frozen raspberries to make many batches of raspberry white chocolate muffins this winter!

Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:
Will fresh raspberries work for raspberry white chocolate muffins?

You can use fresh raspberries for this muffin recipe but they will squish and cause the muffins to be pink. If you don't mind that, then go ahead. I use frozen raspberries just because they are easier to stir into the thick batter.

What is the best way to store Raspberry White Chocolate Muffins?

To store, place the completely cooled muffins in a sealed bag or container. They will keep on the counter for 3 days or in the freezer up to 3 months.

Why did my raspberry muffins become so dense?

Overmixing the batter can cause muffins to become dense. Just stir the dry ingredients into the wet until they are incorporated. It's okay if the batter is a little lumpy.

Why do you bake muffins at a hot temperature for a short time, then turn the temperature down for the rest of the baking?

Starting the muffin baking at a hot temperature will cause the quick baking powder reaction that will make super poofy muffin tops. Then, turning the heat down will ensure that the center of the muffin cooks as well.

How can you tell that raspberry white chocolate muffins are finished cooking?

When a toothpick or knife inserted in the center comes out clean, the muffins are finished cooking.
