Blueberry, Lime, and Basil Muffins

  3.5 – 2 reviews  • Whole Wheat Muffin Recipes

I have never eaten bread as good as this apple strudel bread. Because streusel is present on both the top and bottom, it is extremely distinctive. The bread is really moist because the apples are shred. Everyone will ask you for the recipe, so be ready!

Ingredients

  1. 1 ¼ cups whole wheat flour
  2. 1 cup all-purpose flour
  3. 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  4. 1 teaspoon baking soda
  5. ½ teaspoon salt
  6. ¾ cup white sugar
  7. ⅓ cup unsalted butter, softened
  8. 2 eggs
  9. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  10. 1 large lime, zested and juiced
  11. ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  12. ¼ cup fresh basil, thinly sliced
  13. 2 cups fresh blueberries
  14. 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
  2. Whisk whole wheat flour, 1 cup all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  3. 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.
  4. Place blueberries in a large bowl and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour. Toss to coat. Gently fold into the muffin batter.
  5. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes.
  7. 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.

They were pretty good! Even my husband liked them; and he’s picky! I made one small change; I used vanilla flavored Greek yogaurt instead of plain.
