For these delicious muffins, I used Soft White Wheat Berries sourced from Azure Standard. The first step is milling the grains into flour. I used my Junior Wondermill Deluxe Hand Mill to get a good arm workout in while prepping for my yummy muffins. You could also use an electric grain mill such as the Wondermill Electric Grain Mill.

Next I added my liquid (in this case my milk) into my grains to let it autolyse (hydrate and rest – Read more about Autolyse here if you are new) for about 30 minutes.

Then I added in my baking powder, salt, butter (softened), sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. I used my Kitchen Aid Mixer to fully incorporate all of my ingredients. The I added in my lemon zest and frozen blueberries. I then lined my muffin tin with cupcake liners and scooped them full of dough using my cookie scoop.

I then preheated the oven to 375 and baked for 40 minutes.

Ingredients Needed

  • Soft White Wheat Berries
  • Baking Powder

  1. I love these muffins so much! I’m amazed that using freshly milled grains is really not as hard as I thought. Thanks, Tyla for making it simple for me!

  2. 4 stars
    These are very good! Have you tried one stick of butter instead of two? The butter is bubbling on the muffins when I took them out of the oven. I wanted to leave a 5 star review, but the 5th star would not highlight for me.

    1. I apologize I believe I wrote oz instead of tablespoons! It should only be one stick of butter! I went in and fixed the review button! I’m so sorry that happened, but it’s all fixed now! Thanks for taking the time to comment! I’ll go in and fix the butter part of the recipe right now! 🙂

  3. 5 stars
    These muffins were easy to make and delicious! I was a little worried that my kids wouldn’t like them because they were whole wheat but it was definitely a hit!

  4. I made the lemon blueberry muffins. They were moist, and delicious! I highly recommend! I share with my very picky and opinionated family. They LOVED them, none were left!
