How to make the perfect whole wheat blueberry muffins
The trick to making the perfect muffins or cupcakes is the way you prepare the batter. Over beating is the enemy of fluffy muffins, as it can lead to a dense, dry texture or an unsightly peaked top. That’s why it’s crucial to follow the 10-15 second rule for each mixing step – any longer, and you risk compromising the delicate structure of the batter.
Variations
- You can use plain flour or maida instead of whole wheat flour.
- I feel using oil is best for this recipe but you can replace it with butter too.
- Frozen Blueberries can also be used for this recipe. Thaw/Defreeze the blueberries before using them.
- Refined sugar can be replaced with brown/raw sugar.
