Very nice muffins, will definately make again while the bush is giving us berries. I had Lemon Meringue yogurt so I used that and added a tsp of vanilla extract. I left out the lemon rind because I didn't have it but would add it in the future. I used 2 whole eggs and only 1/2 cup sugar, changed it to whole wheat flour and added an extra 1/2 tsp of baking powder, added 1/2 cup of chopped pecans. I always find with raspberry recipes the berries end up being few and far between so when I added the raspberries I broke them all in half.

Yum! I was looking for a different muffin recipe and happened to have the ingredients on hand for this one. I've never used yoghurt in cooking before but decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did! The muffins taste wonderful - sweet and a bit tart.<br/>I reduced the sugar to 1/2 C, left out the lemon rind/zest, used a whole egg and added some vanilla essence as my yoghurt was plain. The mixture was very thick so I also added a little water along with the raspberries. Even the uncooked batter tasted delicious! <br/>After cooking for a little bit too long, some muffins had black bottoms. But they were crispy on the outside and soooo good.

These are pretty good muffins. I used frzn blackberries (what i had on hand), butter instead of oil, two whole eggs, and whole milk yogurt because I was making these for my 10 month old as well as my SO and me. Even with my full-fat subs they tasted like lighter muffins. I think I might like them a little better with at least 1 cup of sugar. But my SO and baby loved them, so thanks, KelBel!
