Whole Wheat Blueberry Muffins

Its summer and time for some fresh blueberries. Blueberries have a nice sweet and sour taste that makes it amazing and perfect for desserts and cakes. Here is my recipe for making your own delicious blueberry muffins with whole wheat flour with ease and perfection.

The sweetness of the muffin with the juicy and tangy blueberries provides a beautiful balance of flavors and tingles your taste buds. Enjoy them any time of the day with a dash of freshly whipped cream.

In this recipe we are going to make the soft and spongy muffins with whole wheat flour and oil. The trick to making the perfect muffins or cupcakes is the way you prepare the batter. The biggest mistake we make is over beating the batter, it can make the muffins or cupcakes either to create a pointy mountain top or a flat and dense muffins. The trick is to whisk the batter just for 10-15 seconds for each step.

Alternatives:

• 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.

Notes

For best results while baking at half time turn the tray so that all the muffins are evenly baked.
You can substitute the blueberries with any berry of your choice too.
Do not over whisk the batter, it will change the texture and softness of the muffin.
