Preheat oven to 400 F. In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients (the first 7 ingredients) and make a well in the center. In smaller bowl, combine wet ingredients (the next 6 ingredients). Pour wet mixture into the "well" of the dry ingredients and stir just to combine (10-15 strokes). Fold in raisins with as few strokes as possible. Spoon batter into 12 muffin cups (if you don't use muffin liners, spray the pan with cooking spray). Bake 20-25 minutes, until cake tester comes out clean. Remove muffin tin to cooling rack and cool 5 mins. before removing muffins from tin. (Do not let muffins cool completely in the tin.) Recipe By : Jenni Miller
