Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup whole buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 cups fresh raspberries (divided)
• 1/4 cup sliced almonds

Here's how to make it: 

1. Add melted butter, eggs, buttermilk, vanilla and honey to a medium bowl and whisk together. (If you don't have unsalted butter just use regular butter and omit the added salt)
2. Add flour, almond flour, sugar, baking powder and salt to the liquid mixture and gently blend together.
3. Pour 1 cup of the raspberries into a small bowl and use a fork to crush them. (If you can't get fresh raspberries you can substitute frozen. Defrost the berries and use like fresh. The muffins might not be as pretty but they will still taste great!)
4. Add the crushed raspberries to the batter and gently mix them in.
5. Spoon the batter into greased muffin cups. (You could line the muffin tins with baking liners.) Place the additional raspberries and almonds on the top of the batter filled cups.
6. Bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven for 20 minutes. The muffins should be golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffin should come out clean. Cool muffins for 10 minutes before serving and enjoy! Store the muffins in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
