Or halve the recipe if you’re single.
The Raspberry Diet
I think I’d really like that diet… the “eat as many raspberries as is humanly possible” diet. Lately, I’ve not only been eating them plain, but also in oatmeal, truffles, raw fudge cake, and now muffins:
Raspberry Marzipan Muffins
(makes 2 muffins)
- 6 tbsp flour (I use 60g spelt or ww pastry)
- 1 and 1/2 tbsp veg oil or coconut oil (You can sub applesauce, if you like the taste of fat-free muffins)
- 3 tbsp liquid (I used almond milk)
- 1/4 cup chopped (or smushed) raspberries
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp pure almond extract
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/16 tsp salt
- Sweetener (If making these for others, I’d use 2 to 2 and 1/2 tbsp of sugar or 2 packets of stevia. Or, if you want to use liquid sweetener, cut back on the other liquid a little.)
Directions: Preheat the oven to 330 degrees. (Or see note, below, for microwave version.) Mix the ingredients and pour into an oiled (or sprayed) muffin pan. Smooth top of batter. Cook for 12-15ish minutes. If you want to cook this in a microwave, spray or oil two little dishes and microwave 90-ish seconds.

If you made muffins for two, who would get the other?
Do you have any celebrity crushes? I need to re-think my choice of celeb crushes. Previously, Colin Firth and Denzel Washington made the list. But then I discovered they’re older than my dad… 😕 Perhaps I should forget the celeb crushes and simply share a muffin with the current guy in my life: Henry!
P.S. In case you were wondering, the photographer muffin is topped with Vanilla-Fudge Frosting.
Hello sweetheart! I love this “for two” idea 🙂 I’m definately gonna make something cute and heart shaped “for two” on Valentine’s xx
My “boyfriend” aka best friend Kelli would get the second one. 🙂
O my word, these look amazing. Amazing!
Katie, have you ever been publicly recognized? As in someone passing by you and going like “you’re chocolate covered Katie!!!” ?
love

Yeah! Unfortunately, the first time it happened, I was with WF boy and he didn’t know about my blog. Awkward! But yes, it happens every now and then.
Well, right now..my horse would probably get the other. But if Michael were here, I guess I’d share with him. 😛 These look amazing, too! So moist
lol do horses like muffins? I know they like oats! Oh and sugar cubes… I remember feeding sugar cubes to horses when I was little and would visit a farm. Probably not the healthiest for them though :-/.
They’d love muffins! Some of them are picky, but they’ll eat just about anything for the most part. The funniest thing to feed them is peanut butter covered marshmallows since they’re both fluffy and super sticky. 😛 But of course, sticking to the usual apples and grains is best..they’re like little kids and get major sugar rushes!
Ya know those Nature oat-n-honey granola bar things? My friend calls them ”
horse food” because they remind her of what she thinks horses eat lol.
I’ve only just seen this comment and I’d put exactly the same about giving it to my horse! Great minds… 🙂
That’s a great idea! I have two Quarter horses. My gelding will eat anything that’s edible. Actually, he’ll eat anything, period. :-p But my mare’s a little picky. Perhaps she’d like raspberry muffins!
I love the look of these… they look almost too good to eat (but not quite… the almond-raspberry combination sounds like a real winner!)
I’m happily single but I think Dave, my horse, would love the other one… it would depend if he was behaving himself though 🙂
I love your single lady’ness! Yum!
Wow, I think I’m the only bloke on a site full of gorgeous single vegan women! (Better go and lie down) Anyway I’m not single myself but I do love eating and talking about vegan food, maybe occasionally cooking it. These recipes look great. I’ll have to learn how to make them.
Thanks.
Yay! It’s always exciting to know guys are reading too :).
Those look marvelous!! I would share my muffins with my boyfriend Alex, but my two celebrity “freebies” are Alexander Skaarsgard (Eric from True Blood) and Brendan Frazier… weird, I know. 🙂
Mmmm, I bet these would be even better (I’m sure they taste GREAT already!) smothered with coconut butter! No man in my life currently, but that doesn’t mean I can’t make them for my date with my mom, does it? 🙂
Hehe mine’s my date too. She’s getting red velvet pancakes :).
By t he way, I have a HUGE bag of costco size raspberries and strawberries that i’m dying to use- might as well use them in this way 🙂
Let’s be honest I’d eat them both 😛 haha. Or share with my momma 😉
those look soooo good! i’ve been eating blackberries lately… I do not know how there are some that are delicious right now, but there are and they make my day… 🙂
<3

My bf and if he wasn’t around then my sister. 🙂 I think Valentine’s Day is about all kinds of love!!!
Oh my gosh, yum!!! I love being able to count on you for decadent treats in a minimal amount of servings! I know I can always freeze leftovers, but I swear if I cram one more thing in there, it’s going to explode! If I made muffins for two, I would get one and give the other to myself! 😉
I think mine already is exploding :(. Really, I need to stop stuffing more things in my poor freezer!
YUM I’m loving the raspberries too at the mo…but you already knew that of course! 😉
Haha I did a ‘cute celeb guys’ posty thing yesterday, but I did NOT know that guy was vegan or he SO would have made the list!! He’s cute 🙂 But still, I would obviously get both muffins. “EMMA DOESN’T SHARE FOOD!!” 😛
Raspberries in muffins are one of my all time favorite.. I like to add lime zest…sooo good!
