Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease your muffin tins lightly to prevent sticking. -
Prepare Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder. Add the salt, sugar, and whole wheat flour. -
Mix Wet Ingredients:
In another bowl, beat the egg lightly. Add in the milk and melted shortening, stirring until well combined. -
Combine Ingredients:
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just moistened. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. -
Fill Muffin Tins:
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling each cup about two-thirds full. -
Bake:
Place the muffin tins in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. -
Cool and Serve:
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tins for a few minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Enjoy these Whole Wheat Muffins warm or at room temperature, as a wholesome breakfast or a tasty snack any time of day!
