Fresh raspberries make me happy! So do Raspberry Streusel Muffins! These tasty muffins are a delightful way to add a little something extra special to any meal.
I fondly remember picking fresh raspberries on our farm as a kid. I also remember that it was hard not eating all of them straight off the bush before reaching the house! Guess that’s not all bad though because raspberries are little powerhouses, loaded with vitamins, fiber, and other healthy nutrients.

What’s So Great About Raspberries?
As previously mentioned, raspberries are remarkably healthy. If you do a little research of your own, you’ll find that in general, berries contain some of the highest amounts of fiber. Raspberries are among the highest. Just one cup provides one-third of the daily fiber you need along with 40 percent of the recommended daily Vitamin C and manganese.
Additionally, raspberries contain antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties that help protect against diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. These amazing little red berries really are a super food!

These popular berries certainly are delicious in all kinds of recipes such as scones, bread, mousse, cakes, and drinks, as well as in homemade Shake-and-Go Raspberry Vinaigrette. Not to mention Raspberry Streusel Muffins, of course!
