These muffins are not too sweet, which makes them perfect for breakfast or a coffee break (so technically you can eat them all day long!). They are also delicious toasted and spread with butter and raspberry jam. In fact, that’s when they’re best.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups (plus 1 cup) frozen Washington red raspberries divided
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
  • 1 cup buckwheat flour
  • 6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon sea salt

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup plain 2% yogurt
  • 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate cut into pieces

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
  • Make 2 cups of the frozen raspberries into Razz Crush (see below). Set aside.

  • Add butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar to the bowl of stand mixer (or use a hand mixer). Beat until creamy. Add eggs and mix until creamy. Add yogurt and Razz Crush, mix until combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Slowly add dry ingredients to bowl and mix until just combined. Stir in chocolate pieces and 1 cup frozen raspberries.

  1. Set raspberries on counter to thaw at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  2. Gently mash the raspberries (in a sealed bag) with a rolling pin until well mashed.
