1 cup (150g) plain wholemeal flour

1 tbsp baking powder

1 cup (185g) raw caster sugar
-
2⁄3 cup (50g) shredded coconut

300g frozen mixed berries

3⁄4 cup (185ml) buttermilk

Method
-
1
Preheat oven to 190°C (170°C fan-forced). Line 12 x 80ml (1⁄3 cup) muffin tray holes with muffin paper cases.
-
2
Sift together both flours, baking powder and cinnamon into a large mixing bowl, returning any husks to the bowl. Stir in the sugar and coconut. Gently stir in berries. Make a well in the centre.
-
3
Use a fork to whisk together buttermilk, oil, eggs and vanilla in a bowl. Add to the flour mixture and use a spatula or large metal spoon to fold together until just combined. (Don’t overmix – the batter should still be a little lumpy.)

Spoon mixture into the paper cases, dividing evenly. Bake for 25-28 minutes or until the muffins are golden and cooked when tested with a skewer. Cool for 3 minutes in the tin, then turn out onto a wire rack. Serve warm or at room
- You can replace the raw caster sugar with 220g (1 cup, firmly packed) brown sugar if you like.
- There’s no need to thaw the frozen berries before using them in this recipe.
- These muffins are best eaten the day they are baked, however they do freeze well – wrap individually in plastic wrap and then seal in a plastic bag or airtight container. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature.
