Ingredients

  • 190 mL (¾ cup) whole milk
  • 15 mL (1 tbsp) lemon juice
  • 375 mL (1 ½ cups) whole wheat flour
  • 125 mL (½ cup) yellow cornmeal
  • 125 mL (½ cup) sugar
  • 10 mL (2 tsp) baking powder
  • 5 mL (1 tsp) salt
  • 250 mL (1 cup) frozen or fresh blueberries
  • 2 eggs
  • 7 mL (½ tbsp) vanilla extract
  • 125 mL (½ cup) sour cream
  • Zest of 1 lemon (about 7 mL/½ tbsp)
  • 125 mL (½ cup) sunflower oil

Directions

1

Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a muffin pan with silicon liners or use non-stick spray.

2

Prepare buttermilk by combining milk and lemon juice. Let sit for 10 minutes.

3

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

4

In a small bowl, place blueberries and toss with 5 mL (1 tsp) of flour mixture. Set aside.

5

In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, vanilla, sour cream, and lemon zest. Add to dry ingredients, along with sunflower oil. Stir until just blended; and then fold in blueberries. Do not overmix.

6

Spoon batter evenly into the prepared pan up to the top of each cup. Bake for 28 to 30 minutes, or until the tops are firm and golden around the edges. Cool muffins for a few minutes in the pan and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
