Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 170°C/ 338°F fan oven, 180°C/ 350°F, or gas mark 4.
- Prepare and line the muffin tins with muffin cases.
- Grate the zest of 2 oranges and set it aside.
- Squeeze the oranges to make up to 1 cup/ 250 milliliters of orange juice and set it aside.
- Melt the butter in a microwave or in a double boiler. Leave it to cool.
- In a mixing bowl, place the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, caster sugar, baking powder, orange zest, eggs, and cooled melted butter.
- Using a handheld or stand mixer, beat the butter until you get a nice smooth and thick batter.
- Stir in the blueberries to the batter, leaving some berries for the topping.
- Scoop the batter into each muffin case and bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown and firm to the touch. If needed, you can test by piercing a skewer into a muffin. If it comes out clean, your muffins are ready.
- Leave the muffins in their cases for about 2-3 minutes before transferring them onto a cooling rack. Or, you can serve them fresh and warm.
Notes
- One orange yields approximately 2-3 ounces/ 60-80 milliliters of orange juice. So 5 oranges will be more than enough to get a cup/ 250 milliliters of orange juice. Should it be less than 1 cup, you can add water or juice from a carton.
