  2. In a large bowl, mix together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Fold in the mulberries gently.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle the brown sugar on top of each muffin.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Mulberry muffins are best served warm. They pair beautifully with a cup of coffee or tea, and can be served with butter, honey, or yogurt. To store, place in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
