What is your favourite ingredient for baking muffins?

Do you prefer fruits, vegetables or something else?

Makes 8 to 12 servings.

Today we had about 15° to 17°C (60° F) and an overcast sky. The ideal conditions to bake something for the teatime.

In our household we have the habit to have a teatime (with cocoa, tea or coffee and any cake / cookies) at about 4 a.m. when it is possible after we get home.

We normally stand up early in the morning. To have some caffeine / theobromine in the afternoon gives us some energy for the rest of the day.

Although the strawberry season started, we decided to use some frozen raspberries that were left over from garnishing ice cream.

Ingredients for raspberry muffins:
50g butter

1 egg
100 g flour
35 g sugar
2 teasp. vanilla sugar
1/2 teasp. baking powder

250 g raspberries, frozen
