BETTER BLUEBERRY MUFFINS (SHAPE MAGAZINE)



Better Blueberry Muffins (Shape Magazine) image

Good for you and YUMMY whole wheat blueberry muffins that you can enjoy without the guilt. Made solely with whole wheat flour, these muffins deliver not only on taste, but on nutrients such as protein and fiber. I couldn't find whole wheat pastry flour, so I used regular whole wheat flour. I also used 1% organic milk instead of buttermilk. Rather than top these with blueberry spread, I used my father-in-law's homemade peach preserves and they were WONDERFUL!!

Categories     Recipes

Time 45m

Yield 12-16 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup softened unsalted butter (1 stick or 113g)
1 cup sugar (200g)
1/3 cup sourdough starter (100g)
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
zest of 1/2 lemon
2 cups bolted all purpose flour (280g)
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ cup milk (120g)
1 cup blueberries (150g)
1 cup raspberries (130g)
3 tsp sugar to sprinkle on the muffins just before baking

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F.
  • Line a 12-cup muffin tin or grease it with butter or non-stick spray. You can make 12 tall muffins or about 16 regular ones.
  • In a large bowl or stand mixer bowl with a paddle attachment, beat the softened butter and sugar until it's light and creamy.
  • Beating between each addition, add the sourdough starter, eggs one at a time, vanilla extract, and lemon zest.
  • In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Alternately add the milk and the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture in 2-3 rounds, stirring or running the mixer throughout.
  • Gently fold in the berries, the delicate raspberries after the blueberries, and then spoon the batter into the cupcake liners. The batter will be somewhat stiff and be higher than the rim of the liners, but it will settle after about 10 minutes in the oven.
  • Sprinkle sugar over the muffin batter. This will create a crisp top crust on the muffins.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes. Remove the muffins from the pan and let them cool about a half hour before serving.
  • You can store the muffins uncovered and they won't dry out. I like to invert a big bowl over any muffins that aren't eaten the day they were baked.

Tips:

  • Use fresh blueberries: Fresh blueberries will give your muffins the best flavor and texture. If you only have frozen blueberries, thaw them completely before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use muffin liners: Muffin liners will help prevent the muffins from sticking to the pan and will make them easier to remove.
  • Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full: This will allow the muffins to rise properly in the oven.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to tell if the muffins are done baking.

Conclusion:

These blueberry muffins are the perfect way to start your day or enjoy as a snack. They are moist, fluffy, and packed with juicy blueberries. With a few simple tips, you can make the best blueberry muffins you've ever tasted. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
