  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup (240ml) milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • ½ cup (120ml) vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1 cup (150g) raisins
  • 1 tablespoon coarse sugar for sprinkling (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line the muffin tin with paper liners or grease with cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon, whisking until well blended.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, then add milk and vegetable oil, mixing until combined.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a rubber spatula until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Carefully fold in raisins until evenly distributed.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. Sprinkle coarse sugar on top if desired.
  7. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
