Healthier Blueberry Muffins
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups blueberries, tossed with 1 Tbsp flour to coat

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a muffin tin with liners and set aside (yields 12 muffins).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon; set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, milk, vanilla, eggs, and honey.
  4. Gently fold the dry mixture into the wet with a spatula until just mixed. Be sure not to over mix. Fold in oil then blueberries.
  5. Divide the batter evenly between muffin liners. Bake for 16-18 minutes.
  6. Allow muffins to cool in pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire rack to cool completely.

Tips & Tricks:

  • Why should you coat fruit with a bit of flour before adding it to the batter? The flour will help keep the fruit suspended while baking so everything doesn’t even up at the bottom of the muffin/cake/etc.
