Gluten Free Raspberry Chocolate Chip Muffins

My 14 year old is becoming quite the baker. She loves to take recipes and make them gluten free. She also loves to take some of my basic recipes and put her own twist on them. These muffins are an example of that. She took one of our favorite muffin recipes and turned it into a raspberry muffin.

One of the reasons my daughter loves the original muffin recipe is that it is sweet. It is more of a dessert type muffin than a breakfast type muffin. I think she figured that adding raspberries to them would make them more breakfast like. I am not sure I agree on that one, but either way, these are delicious. And I think they would work for snacks, dessert, or yes even breakfast.

These also freeze really well. She made a big batch and we put some in the freezer and they worked great for quick snacks and meals.
