Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together flours, baking soda and salt.
Step 3

In a large bowl, with a mixer beat butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add egg whites and beat well. In another bowl, combine mashed bananas, milk and vanilla.
Step 4

With mixer on low, alternately add flour mixture and banana mixture to butter mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture; mix just until combined. Fold in blueberries.
Step 5

Divide batter among muffin cups. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
