– 1/2 tsp baking soda
– 1/2 tsp salt
– 1 tsp ground cinnamon
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 1/3 cup vegetable oil
– 1 large egg
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1/2 cup raspberry preserves
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease them with non-stick spray.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
5. Fill each muffin cup halfway with the muffin batter.
6. Create a small well in the center of the batter in each cup, and add a spoonful of raspberry preserves (about 1 teaspoon) to each well.
7. Top each muffin cup with the remaining batter, covering the raspberry filling.
8. Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Once done, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
