Mini raspberry custard muffins FAQ:

What is the baking time for mini raspberry custard muffins?

Bake the muffins in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

How do I know when the muffins are done?

To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin. If it comes out clean or with a few crumbs, the muffins are done. If there’s wet batter on the toothpick, continue baking for a few more minutes.

Can I substitute the olive oil in the recipe?

Yes, you can substitute olive oil with other neutral oils like vegetable oil or canola oil. For a richer flavor, you could also use melted butter.

How should I store leftover muffins?

Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months.

What can I use instead of raspberries in this recipe?

You can substitute raspberries with other berries like blueberries or chopped strawberries. Adjust the quantity to maintain the muffin's moisture.

Tips:

- For a more intense raspberry flavor, use fresh raspberries instead of frozen ones.

- Don't overmix the batter; mix just until the ingredients are combined to keep the muffins light and fluffy.

- To prevent the raspberries from sinking to the bottom, lightly coat them with flour before folding them into the batter.

- Use a toothpick to check if the muffins are done. Insert into the center and if it comes out clean, they're ready.

- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them set properly.
