Notes

Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze them for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature or warm in the microwave before enjoying. You can substitute raspberries with other fruits like blueberries or strawberries. Consider mixing in chopped nuts or chocolate chips for added flavor.
