Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fruits

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk these together thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the leavening agents and sugar.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the egg lightly. Add Greek yogurt, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract, stirring until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently just until combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep your muffins tender and light.
  4. Fold in the Fresh Raspberries: Carefully fold in the fresh raspberries, being gentle so the fruit doesn’t burst too much and make the batter overly wet or pink.
  5. Fill Muffin Tin and Bake: Divide the batter evenly among a lined or greased muffin tin. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 18 to 22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • Use fresh raspberries to prevent excessive juice bleeding which can affect texture and color.
  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid tough muffins; stir until just combined.
  • Start checking for doneness at 18 minutes as oven temperatures vary.
  • Use room temperature eggs and yogurt for smoother blending of ingredients.
  • Optional: sprinkle additional oats on top before baking for rustic texture.
