Time 55m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ¼ cups whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup white sugar
⅓ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large lime, zested and juiced
½ cup plain Greek yogurt
¼ cup fresh basil, thinly sliced
2 cups fresh blueberries
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
  • Whisk whole wheat flour, 1 cup all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Beat sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract, lime zest, and lime juice. Stir in Greek yogurt. Add 1/2 of the flour mixture and stir just until combined. Add in remaining flour mixture, stirring just until combined; do not to overmix. Fold in basil.
  • Place blueberries in a large bowl and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour. Toss to coat. Gently fold into the muffin batter.
  • Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove muffins from the oven and let cool in the pan 1 to 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely, 15 to 30 minutes more.

These muffins are a bit too expensive for my taste. I can find similar muffins at the grocery store for a fraction of the price.
