Blueberry muffins always go down well here.
But this classic bake is often made with refined white sugar and white flour.
Here I've used a blend of plain flour and spelt flour to make them a bit more wholesome.
I've also used coconut sugar instead of white sugar - however you can substitute caster sugar if you prefer.
We found them perfectly sweet with the coconut sugar and they were a big hit with the Sneaky Veg kids.

Thanks Jenny! Spelt flour can absorb more liquid than normal plain flour so you may need to adjust it but I often do a 50/50 ratio and it works fine. I also make pizza dough in this way. Just feels a bit more nutritious!

These look and sound amazing. I love how you have made them full of goodness - so much healthier than the bought ones! And I am pretty sure I would like yours way better than a bought one too. I always find the commercial ones way too sweet. Eb x
