Gail's Raspberry Muffins

.. got a late call from my daughter asking to whip up something yummy for her team’s tea tomorrow. I nicked one for myself. Delish😊😊
Ingredients
150 grams butter
1 cup castor sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla essence
3 eggs
1 cup milk
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 1/4 cup of cake flour
1 1/2 cups of fresh raspberries
Method:
Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan assist)
Line muffin tray with cupcake holders.
In a large bowl, beat the sugar and butter until light and creamy (3 minutes) add the vanilla essence and eggs one at a time, making sure to add a tablespoon of flour with each addition of egg to prevent mixture from splitting, beat well for about 2 minutes. Add half of the dry ingredients and half the milk and stir lightly until just combined. Then add the rest of the dry ingredients and mix lightly for 1 minute.
Lightly fold in the raspberries and spoon into the muffin pan.
Bake for + – 20 minutes or until you insert a skewer and it comes out clean.
You can opt for Blueberries which was the original fruit used in this recipe.
Recipe yields 18 muffins.
