I'll be honest… I've never planned to publish any muffin or cake recipes on leanjumpstart.com. Most yummy muffin recipes I know are real sugar, starches, and fat bombs…The following gluten-free raspberry muffins, however, are different and support perfectly my 80/20 clean eating approach.

No starches, no sugar, just a bit of honey or maple syrup make this vegetarian recipe a winner not only for people who are sensitive to sugar and starches. On top of that, you reap the health benefits of the fiber in raspberries. Most fat is healthy fat from almonds combined with a bit of coconut oil. And still in the context of weight loss – fat is fat – so please don't go overboard with it!

Bring raspberry muffins with you

Are the next party around the corner and you have no idea how to survive it without gaining weight? Offer instead to bring muffins with you as a goodwill gesture. Your homemade easy raspberry muffins make sure that you can have a wholesome treat too.

Why I don't use baking soda

The cleaner leavening agent for this recipe would be baking soda. But luckily as an 80/20 percent clean eater, I don't need to complicate things. Baking soda will cause the muffin batter to fail to rise and to taste bitter. It is better used for cookies.


Worth the time Investment

Usually, the fiber-rich, clean eating recipes on leanjumpstart.com are ready within 30 minutes or less to save you as much time as possible. This time limit seldom works with muffins or cakes that have to be baked. But I promise you the preparation is quite easy and the bit of extra baking time is really worth it.

A yummy variation is to replace the raspberries for blueberries and spice it up with cinnamon instead of ginger.

  1. Dumb question, I don’t have gluten free baking powder, will it mess up anything if I use regular?

  2. Ok, I have a silly question as I’m not a baker and I’m learning.
    What do you mean by 300 gr of Almond meal and 200 gr of raspberries?

    • Sorry Trudy, this is my fault and I will correct it in the recipe ASAP.
      For your information: gr. is the abbreviation for gram.
      300 gr = 10.5 oz. of Almond meal
      200 gr = 7 oz of. raspberries

    • Dear Liz,
      you can but I don’t recommend frozen raspberries as they might make the dough too wet.
      Please make sure to thaw them in time to remove excess water.

    • Dear Jan,
      thank you Jan! They not only look delicious but have a great taste too;)
      Just hurry up with trying them, the raspberry season, at least here in Germany is almost over…
      Preparing them with fresh raspberries is always the better option.
