Lemon Raspberry Muffins

These Lemon Raspberry Muffins are the perfect brunch menu item! The fresh raspberries and lemon zest give the muffins a bright burst of tart flavor and a lemon glaze drizzled over the top adds the perfect amount of sweetness!

Once a week on Sunday mornings, I get up and cook a big breakfast for my family. My Mom started that tradition years ago when we were little, and it’s something I’ve carried on doing for my family! Some weeks I make big stacks of pancakes, and other weeks I spoil my family with the works: biscuits and gravy, omelets, bacon, and fried potatoes! Though not exactly figure-friendly, it definitely satisfies the growing boys in my house!

But most weeks I keep Sunday breakfast light and simple, with homemade muffins and fresh fruit. Muffins are so quick and easy to whip up, and there’s nothing like breaking open a steamy, fresh-baked muffin! I shared these Lemon Raspberry Muffins here awhile back, but I’ve recently made a few changes to the recipe to make them even more lemony and delicious! So I thought I would re-photograph them (since I’ve come a long way with my photography skills!) and share the new recipe with you!

Lemon Raspberry Muffins
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 1/4 cups raspberries
1 cup confectioners sugar
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. In another bowl, mix eggs, buttermilk, oil, and lemon zest. Stir the wet ingredients into the flour mixture until moistened. Fold in raspberries. Fill 18 muffin cups 2/3 full and bake at 400 degrees for 18-20 minutes. In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioners sugar and lemon juice. If glaze is too thick, add another tablespoon of lemon juice. Drizzle the glaze over the muffins and allow to harden slightly, about 5 minutes. 
Enjoy!

    Um, yes please! Lemon and raspberry are my favorite flavors and one of the best combos (afterall, it was how we opted to do our wedding cake!). Definitely making these ๐Ÿ™‚ Do you think it would work as well with frozen berries?

      Did you try these with frozen berries? I had the same question.

      Reply
    • Mandi and Adam says: June 5, 2013 at 4:21 am

      We made these yesterday and used frozen berries. They worked great! I left them frozen and mixed them with a little flour before putting them in the batter. The muffins turned out fantastic! They are definitely one of my new favorite muffins! They remind me of the lemon cake that our family has made for years, except that doesn’t have raspberries in it. It probably should though! Thanks for this great recipe! I will make these again and again.

    I made these yesterday and they are hands down the best muffins I’ve ever had in my life. Perfect consistency, perfect amount of lemon and raspberry, and the glaze adds the perfect touch. I’m pretty sure I could eat all 12 in one sitting…

    I just made these with wild red and black raspberries we found in our backyard. These muffins make life worth living! (And in case anyone was wondering, frozen berries work just as well as fresh. I didn’t even dust them with flour or anything, just stirred them in with a spatula.)

    Thank you for sharing this recipe!

  31. Calli says: March 31, 2014 at 3:19 pm

    I made these with two small changes. I used frozen berries dusted with Flour and doubled the lemon zest. They tasted amazing but I had one small issue–Most of the muffins fell apart when took them out of the pan. I wonder if I should have let them cool longer…

    Reply
    • Liz Fourez says: April 4, 2014 at 8:54 am

      Hi Calli! I’m so glad the frozen berries worked for you too! I might recommend using a muffin liner letting them cool a bit longer. That might make a difference! Hope you enjoyed the muffins!

    Recipe looks amazing. Has anyone made this in a loaf pan instead of muffins?

    • Liz Fourez says: July 2, 2014 at 9:23 pm

      Thanks Debbie! I’ve only made this in a muffin tin, so you’ll have to let me know how it works if you give it a try!

    I LOVED these when I tried them last time. I made them with raspberries last time, and frozen strawberries this time…due to having no raspberries around:(. But, I thawed them a little prior to folding them into my batter. I was wondering, though, if I’m SUPPOSED TO let the muffins cool prior to pouring the glaze on them, or if it can be done while warm? Thoughts?

    Reply
    • Liz Fourez says: February 28, 2015 at 10:23 pm

      I love the idea of strawberries in this recipe too! I like to let the muffins cool first so the glaze stays on top of the muffins. I find that if I glaze right after they come out of the oven, the glaze tends to soak into the muffin and loses a bit of its pizzaz. That’s my thoughts, anyway! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Liz,
    These look delicious but you might want to do some research on canola oil.
    I’ll use coconut oil instead.
