Ingredients
-
2 whole-wheat cocoa cereal bisks, finely crushed
-
3 large eggs
-
2 tsp vanilla extract
-
1 sachet (approx. 11g) low-calorie hot chocolate powder
-
50g fresh blueberries
-
50g fresh raspberries
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Preheat & Prep: Heat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan / 350°F). Arrange 5 silicone muffin cups in a standard muffin pan.
-
Combine Base: Add the crushed wheat bisks, eggs, vanilla extract, and low-calorie hot chocolate powder into a medium mixing bowl.
-
Blend Batter: Using an electric hand mixer, whisk on medium speed until the mixture forms a smooth, cohesive batter.
-
Fold in Berries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries and raspberries with a spatula, leaving the berries whole to create juicy fruit pockets.
-
Portion: Spoon the batter evenly into the 5 silicone muffin cups.
-
Bake: Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until set. Check readiness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
-
Cool & Serve: Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
