I originally shared this post on my friend, Mique’s blog: Thirty Handmade Days
Alright, so I was thinking ‘summer.’ Then, I was thinking ‘food.’ Then I was thinking ‘nachos… the greasy gas station kind.’ Then I went and changed a diaper, did a load of laundry, and buzzed the heads of two children. Then I remembered what I was supposed to be thinking about… a post for you! Something summer, easy, kid-friendly… how about Raspberry White Chocolate Muffins?? I’ve had this recipe saved in an old Taste of Home magazine for a while now, so who better to share the deliciousness with than you? I looooooove raspberries. Love. And, these were delicious! Perfect for a summer breakfast. (If you love these muffins, be sure to check out my Summer Muffins, made with oranges, bananas, and poppy seeds!)
