Raspberry White Chocolate Muffins

Welcome back friends and thank you for always keeping up with the latest, new recipes I share. Today’s are these Raspberry White Chocolate Muffins. You are in for a treat!

There are a ton of wonderful flavor combinations that compete for the top spot in my book, but one that definitely sticks in my top five is raspberry and white chocolate. Even if you aren’t a huge white chocolate fan the combination brings a whole other level of flavor to your sweet tooth.

When the tangy freshness of raspberries mixes together with the vanilla and floral flavors of white chocolate you get an unbeatable treat. Now, add those into muffins and your breakfast and or snacks are ready for the week. 

I like to bake these muffins on a Sunday and store them for the kids. Just pop them in a container inside your fridge, heat them up slightly (a toaster oven works great!), and top with your favorite spread or jam. Our go-to is good ole fashioned melted butter but for a slightly sweeter taste go with raspberry jam spread

If you prefer to substitute for dark or milk chocolate you absolutely can! I highly recommend giving the white chocolate a turn first. Dark and milk chocolate can be slightly overpowering to the raspberry flavor in these bite-sized treats. I recommend using fewer chocolate chips if you do decide to bake these with dark or milk chocolate. I used Ghirardelli Chocolate Chips as they bring a more bold and rich flavor.

Make sure to either use fresh raspberries from the farmers’ market or your local grocery store. Do not use frozen raspberries as they tend to get mushy once they thaw out. If you must, please ensure you thaw and drain all liquids.
