History and origin of blueberry muffins
Blueberry muffins are a classic baked good with roots in American and Canadian cuisine. Originally popularized in North America, these small cakes have won over palates around the world thanks to their sweet and fruity flavor combined with a soft and spongy texture.
In Latin America, although the word "muffin" mostly remains the same, in some countries they may be known as "panquecitos" or "queques," adaptations that vary by region. In other countries, the recipe may include local fruits or additional ingredients, but the base remains the same: a small individual cake that can be enjoyed for breakfast or as a snack.
The version of muffins with whole wheat flour and blueberries stands out for being a healthier option, enriched with fiber and antioxidants present in whole wheat and blueberries, respectively. This recipe is perfect for those looking for a nutritious alternative without losing the traditional flavor.
