If your on a bit of an health kick or just fancy eating less sugar then I think these little muffins of joy will be perfect for you. Made with honey and wholemeal spelt flour your probably expecting them to be quite tasteless and certainly not as flavoursome as a regular sugar filled muffin, but you would be surprised at how moist (ergh!) and scrumptious they are. The perfect 3pm treat with your favourite cup of tea.
These are really easy to make and you only need a few ingredients, you can literally have these made and ready to eat in half hour tops.
You will need -
150g unsalted butter
150g plain flour (white, wholemeal, gluten free or spelt)
Four tablespoons if honey
Three medium eggs
One teaspoon of baking powder
150g fresh blueberries
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius and line a tin with muffin cases.
Melt the butter and honey together in a small pan on low/medium heat. Next add your flour and baking powder to a large bowl and stir in the liquid mixture. Once you've done that you can stir in the (prebeaten) eggs and you should have a nice smooth mixture. Very gently fold in the blueberries before popping the mixture into 8 cases, be quite generous as they don't rise quite as much as cupcakes do so you can fill about three quarters of the case.
Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown (ALWAYS check with a skewer) and leave to cool for 15 minutes or so, the blueberries will still be hot otherwise and you don't want to burn your tounge!
It really is as easy as that, simple refined sugar free almost healthy muffins. The blueberries are definitely the reason these cakes still taste sweet, but why not experiment with different fruit such as raspberries or banana?
Until Next Time xo
Blueberry muffins are my absolute favourite so thank you so much for a sugar free recipe! Definitely going to have to give this a go.
