Muffins are so versatile and a great way to enjoy fresh fruit because the process of baking brings out the natural sweetness. The fruit helps to add sweetness and flavor, as well as moisture, to the muffins.

You can basically use any type of fruit you have on hand ( banana nut muffins or blueberry muffins are popular) or even mix different fruits together like strawberry-banana muffins.

Tips for Best Results When Making Bakery-Style Muffins


  • To make the perfect muffin, use a light touch when mixing the batter for a tender muffin. Overmixing can lead to tough, dry muffins.
  • Fill the muffin cups only two-thirds full. This will help them rise nicely, prevent them from becoming too dense and will ensure even baking and perfectly formed muffin tops.
  • The muffins rise as they cook, so you do not want to reach the top of the muffin liner.


How to Store Your Muffins


Let the muffins cool completely, then store them in a sealed airtight container or plastic bag. You can keep it at room temperature for 3 days. You can freeze the muffins in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Let them defrost on the counter at room temperature.

Can I Substitute the Raspberries?

When it comes to baking, raspberry is one of those flavors that people either love or hate. If you’re not a fan of the fresh raspberry in these easy raspberry muffins then feel free to substitute another fruit in its place.



Fresh berries such as blueberry or blackberry would be good substitutes. You could even get creative and try a combination of fresh fruit to make berry and white chocolate muffins.


Why use Ricotta in this Muffin Recipe?

Ricotta adds a wonderfully delicate and creamy texture to these muffins. It also helps keep them moist and fluffy for days. Plus, it pairs perfectly with the succulent raspberries and creamy white chocolate.



Ricotta cheese is a great way to add moistness and richness to muffins, without using too much oil or butter. You can substitute ricotta with cottage cheese or sour cream.
