Directions
Step 1: Prep the Oven
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3: Cream Butter & Sugar
In another bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy (about 2–3 minutes). Add in the eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract and lemon zest.
Step 4: Combine Wet & Dry
Gradually add the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, until well combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5: Add the Berries
Gently fold in the fresh raspberries with a spatula.
Step 6: Fill & Bake
Spoon the batter into the cupcake liners about 2/3 full. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Frosting Tip (Optional)
Top with whipped lemon cream cheese frosting or vanilla buttercream for an extra luscious touch.
