 It takes almost 35 minutes to make these moist and fluffy raspberry streusel muffins from start to finish!

Lemon Raspberry Streusel Muffins

(6 tablespoons) all-purpose flour

(1/4 cup and 1 tablespoon) granulated sugar

42 grams(3 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted

(2 cups) all-purpose flour, (dip and sweep)

baking powder

salt (optional)

(3/4 cup) granulated sugar**

lemon zest

eggs, (room temperature)

(3/4 cup) milk, (room temperature)

(1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted***

60 grams/ml (1/4 cup) fresh lemon juice

(1 and 1/3 cup) raspberries fresh or frozen

Mix the flour and sugar in a small bowl.   For tiny crumbles: Cut the cold butter into flour mixture with a fork or rub with your finger until they look like crumbs. For big crumbles: Pour the melted butter and slowly mix with a fork or a spoon. If it forms a dough, that’s fine.  You can take big or small pieces from the dough.

Streusel Topping

Preheat the oven to 375°F(190°C). Line 12 non-stick standard paper liners into regular size 12 cup-cupcake/muffin pan and set aside.

Mix the flour, baking powder and salt if using in a large bowl.  Set aside.

Place the sugar and lemon zest in a medium bowl, stir with a fork or rub with your fingers to bring the lemon flavor out. Add the egg and whisk for a minute until combined well. Mix in the melted butter, milk and lemon juice.

Pour the wet ingredients(egg mixture) into dry ingredients (flour mixture) and mix until just combined.  Gently fold the raspberries. Don’t overmix the batter inorder to have light muffins .

Fill 12 paper liners to the top with the batter.  Sprinkle the crumbles on top.

Bake for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick that is inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean and the top of the muffins are lightly golden brown.  Baking time may change from oven to oven so start to check the muffins after 18 minutes. Let the muffins stay in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring on a wire rack to cool completely.

Triple Berry Cheesecake Muffins Step 5

It was perfect the first time. I learn so much from you as well! Keep it up great post.

Hi - yes, yum. These are soooo good. Looked at the recipe as soon as I saw the email - realized I had all the ingredients and immediately got up and made them. No regrets here.

I can’t wait to try these blueberriy muffins!! They look absolutely delicious and I will making these first hung in the morning!

I love cake and make them in my home. I will definitely try to make this one also. let's see how berry cheesecake muffins taste.

I can't wait to try this recipe. Because we love cheesecake but this is something we never tried before.

Made these today and they are AMAZING! I did add a bit more salt but I often do that in baked goods to increase the sweet/salty contrast. I got 12 muffins and the baking time was spot-on for me. The perfect amount of streusel. Thank you for the excellent recipe!

These sound and look amazing! There is nothing like old faithful comfort food!

I loooove these so much. I made them last night on a whim and only had sour cream and fresh blueberries in the fridge instead of yogurt and frozen berries. I added too much batter at the bottom (1.5tbsp), so next time I'm only doing a leveled 1tbsp (this will allow the cream cheese to actually sit at the middle). I also added an extra tbsp of cream cheese to the filling. Be sure to use all the crumbles - I thought I overdid it and omitted half a cup, but noticed I could've added much more after the muffins expanded. Don't overbake!! You'll lose the filling part of the muffin and be stuck with a slight cream cheese taste. These were gone the next morning in the matter of 2 hours!!!

Oh. Em. Gee.  I would give these seven stars. Like something from a high-end bakery and not hard at all to make.  I had all ingredients on hand except cream cheese &amp; froz fruit.  All future diets are now forever annihilated.

I had what I thought were a couple epic fails with this recipe (which I’ll get into in a sec in case it helps anyone else out) but in the end, these muffins still turned out incredibly delicious, and the fails can probably be chalked up to me not being a very experienced baker, so hence the 5 stars!

First off, I subbed GF flour. When making the streusel, the mixture immediately started turning into more of a paste then a crumble. I tried adding more flour but couldn’t bring it back, so I spread the mixture thinly on wax paper and popped in the freezer while I moved onto step two: the cheesecake filling. This step was actually problem free, so I optimistically moved onto the batter. After creaming the butter and sugar (or what I thought was creaming them), I added the eggs and yogurt. The whole mix immediately curdled! I decided not to panic and slowly added some gf flour to see if it would come back together. It appeared to be working so I finished up the batter steps. I took the “streusel” out of the freezer and broke it up into little bits to sprinkle on top.  

In the end, I’d say I’d overfilled the cups and the streusel did not look very pretty, but these are so incredibly delicious, I’m glad I persevered! I’ll definitely try again for a better aesthetic result next time!

This recipe is amazing! The cheesecake and streusel take these to the next level. I also failed to follow directions not once but twice and they still turned out great. 

I had just received my online grocery order when I first saw this recipe and didn’t have cream cheese on hand. So I had to be patient until the next grocery order and it was totally worth it.
