Combining two of my favourite fruits into one cupcake is like a treat from heaven. This muffin is my family’s favourite and its usually gone in an instant.

- 125g plain self-raising flour
- 100g wholemeal self-raising flour
- 80g brown sugar
- 3 large eggs (at room temperature)
- Zest 2 lemons
- 100g of blueberries
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
- 4 tablespoons of non-fat yoghurt or greek yoghurt (about 200g)
Directions
Preparation time: 15- 20 min

I have some wholemeal flour I want to use up in baking but I am a bit unsure how! I love the cupcake recipe from the BBC and your adaptation looks delicious.
Hi! You can use wholemeal flour and add 0.5 tsp of bicarbonate soda or baking powder into it to replace the wholemeal self-raising flour. I won’t advise you to make the whole muffin out of wholemeal flour because that will make the muffin very dense. Hope this helps:)
Excellent thanks!
