Muffins are a delicious snack that has conquered palates around the world. Originating from England, these small baked cakes have been adapted in every Latin American country with variations in their ingredients and names. In Mexico and Argentina, they are usually simply called "muffins," while in countries like Colombia, they are sometimes known as "queques" or "panquecitos" when they are smaller in size. Their popularity is due to their versatility and ease of preparation, making them ideal for both breakfast and a snack accompanied by coffee or tea.
The combination of fresh fruits or jam with spices like cinnamon is common in various Latin American recipes, providing a unique and aromatic flavor. In particular, raspberry cinnamon muffins offer a perfect balance between sweetness and a spicy touch, making every bite irresistible. This recipe is an excellent way to enjoy a homemade dessert that is light and has both a traditional and modern touch at the same time.
