Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Blueberry Matcha Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin tin with liners or grease with coconut oil.
  2. In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flour, almond flour, matcha powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, melted coconut oil, eggs, honey, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
  4. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture using a spatula without over-mixing.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries, minimizing breaking them apart.
  6. Spoon the batter into the muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Mix wisely to keep muffins light and fluffy. If using frozen blueberries, ensure they are thawed and drained. Adjust sweetness before baking as needed.
