YUMMY AND EASY RAISIN MUFFINS



Yummy and Easy Raisin Muffins image

Moist and super yummy Raisin Muffins. I made them from a basic muffin recipe then adding some ingredients of my own and tweaking the cooking time. Very easy to make! Chop the raisins finely--don't mash them! The banana makes the already moist muffins, well, more moist with just a hint of banana flavor. Not to mention that it gives a good look on the muffin top crust. It's important that you use an overripe banana. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh baking powder and baking soda to ensure your muffins rise properly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a tender muffin.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Gently fold in the flour and raisins. Overmixing the batter will result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full. This will allow the muffins to rise properly without overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

These easy raisin muffins are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. They are also a great way to use up any leftover raisins. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy these delicious muffins in no time.
