Raspberry-Cream Cheese Muffins image

Serve these muffins for breakfast and your family will be begging for more. We love the combination of cream cheese and tart raspberries. GOOD TO KNOW: These sweets have only two-thirds the fat of traditional muffins. Walnuts are full of heart-healthy fats, and the antioxidants in raspberries can prevent heart disease and certain cancers, as well as keep your eyes, mind, and immune system sharp.

I'm not a huge fan of raspberries, but these muffins were still really good. The cream cheese filling was the perfect balance to the tartness of the raspberries.

These muffins were easy to make and turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little more sugar to the batter.

These muffins were absolutely amazing! They were so moist and fluffy, and the raspberry cream cheese filling was the perfect touch. I will definitely be making these again.
