Muffins with Fruits
Muffins are one of the most traditional types of pastry. In this post, we will teach you three different recipes for muffins with fruits. The first one combines two classics: orange, and chocolate. The second is a healthier option because it uses integral flour. And, finally, we propose a light recipe so you can continue to enjoy this delicious dessert, even if you’re on a diet.
Orange and chocolate muffins
Orange and chocolate are two flavors that combine perfectly. The acidic taste of the orange zest and its juice, together with chocolate chips, make this muffin recipe a star dessert. Take note and make these delicious muffins with fruits at home.
Ingredients for 12 muffins:
- Three eggs
- 8.8 ounces of flour
- 5.2 ounces of sugar
- 6 fluid ounces of olive oil
- 2 fluid ounces of milk
- One orange
- Half a bag of yeast
- Chocolate chips
Preparation:
- Mix the flour and the yeast in a bowl. Then, add grated orange. Be careful not to grate the white part because it will make the muffins taste bitter.
- In another bowl, add the eggs, oil, sugar, milk, and orange juice. With the help of a blender, beat the ingredients until you obtain a homogeneous mixture.
- Pour the flour mixture, the yeast, and the grated zest into the second bowl. Reuse the blender so that all of the ingredients are well mixed.
- Let the dough rest for half an hour. In the meantime, place some transparent film or a kitchen towel on top of the dough.
- Preheat the oven to a temperature of 356 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place mold paper in each hole, in a special pan for baking muffins. Then, pour the dough without filling the entire mold. The right amount is a little more than half. Remember, the yeast we’ve added will increase in size during baking.
- Add the chocolate chips on top of each cupcake.
- Bake for 20 minutes at a temperature of 356 degrees Fahrenheit.
Wholemeal muffins with red berries
Whole grains are a very healthy option. By containing all three parts of the plant kernel, they retain the properties of the seed and are rich in fiber. That is why this recipe is especially recommended for people who like to take care of themselves or who have digestive problems.

- Let the dough rest for half an hour. Cover it with a kitchen towel in the meantime.
- Preheat the oven to 356 degrees Fahrenheit.
