Triple B Muffins
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter at room temperature
- 3/4 cup sugar, preferably turbinado or other less-refined sugar
- 1/4 cup light-bodied olive oil (or a neutral oil)
- 1 cup buttermilk at room temperature
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup /4 1/2 ounces all-purpose flour
- 1 cup /4 1/2 ounces whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen (unthawed)
- 1 medium banana, ripe but not soft, cut into blueberry-sized chunks
- 1/4 cup turbinado sugar
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0F. Generously butter the wells of a 12-cup muffin pan. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, oil, buttermilk, eggs, vanilla, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon.
- Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture. Fold/mix gently so that there are still some large patches of dry mix are still visible.
- Scatter the blueberries and banana over the top of the batter. Continue to fold gently until ingredients are just combined, taking care not to overmix the batter.
- Divide batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling them to the top. Sprinkle a single layer of turbinado sugar over the surface of each muffin.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, rotating the pan after 10 minutes. The muffins are ready when the tops are firm and golden and a cake tester tests clean. Take care not to overcook.
- Remove from the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes. Finish cooling them out of the pan on a cooling rack.
- Eat them warm. With a little butter, of course.
