BLUEBERRY MUFFINS

Prep 15 Min | Total 30 Min Makes 18 muffins 1 cup whole-wheat flour 3/4 cup all-purpose flour 1/4 cup almond flour

1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp orange zest

2 cups fresh or frozen blueberrie­s

2 large eggs

1 1/4 cup low fat (1%) buttermilk

1/2 cup brown sugar 6 tbsp canola oil

1 tbsp orange juice 1/2 tsp vanilla

1. Position rack in the top third of oven and preheat to 400F. Line muffin tins with paper liners.

2. In a large bowl, combine flours, baking powders, baking soda, salt and orange zest. Add blueberrie­s and toss gently to coat blueberrie­s in flour. (This will help keep blueberrie­s suspended in the batter so they don’t fall to the bottom.)

3. In a medium bowl, lightly beat eggs, then whisk in buttermilk, brown sugar, oil, orange juice and vanilla. Don’t be concerned if the mixture looks lumpy.

4. Pour wet ingredient­s into the dry ingredient­s and stir until most of the flour is incorporat­ed. The mixture can be slightly lumpy; don’t overmix. Divide batter among 18 prepared muffin cups.

5. Bake 12 to 14 minutes, until muffins are golden brown around the edges.
