And you thought that the only recipes you would get on my blog would be savory.....
well, here is my sweet (albeit mostly healthy) side! When you have freezer bags full of handpicked raspberries, you find a way to put them in everything! This was originally a recipe for chocolate chip muffins, but I decided to jazz it up and replace most of the butter with plain yogurt (my favorite secret muffin ingredient), substitute whole wheat flour for white, decrease the sugar, and add in whole raspberries and dark chocolate chunks. Its like a healthy smooch. And the kind of muffins that you secretly hope your daughter won't like because its more for you! Here you go:
whole wheat chocolate chip raspberry muffins
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup white sugar
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 TBSP butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
1 cup plain yogurt
1/3 dark chocolate chips
1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
Cream butter and sugar. Beat in egg until combined. Beat in yogurt and vanilla. In separate bowl mix flour, salt, and baking powder. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix gently. Fold in chocolate chips and raspberries. Fills about 12 muffin cups. Bake at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes.
