How to Make Raspberry Cream Cheese Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 4 ounces (113g) softened cream cheese and 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter until smooth.
  3. Add 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar and beat with an electric mixer on high speed until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
  4. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 large egg whites, and 1 large egg until well combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1/2 cup (120ml) buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  7. Gently fold in 1 cup (140g) fresh raspberries and 1/2 cup (60g) chopped walnuts.
  8. Fill muffin liners about 2/3 full.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
