Description

These Healthy Blueberry Muffins are a delightful treat packed with flavor. Made with wholesome ingredients like whole wheat flour and Greek yogurt, they’re easy to prepare and perfect for breakfast or a snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups (180g) whole wheat pastry flour or all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (90g) quick oats
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, optional
  • 1 cup (148g) blueberries
  • 1/2 cup (170g) honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup (48g) melted coconut oil, avocado oil or another neutral oil
  • 1/4 cup (57g) unsweetened applesauce
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature and lightly beaten
  • 1 cup (240g) plain greek yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar, optional for sprinkling


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425℉. Line a standard muffin pan with paper liners or grease with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Gently toss the blueberries in the flour mixture to prevent them from sinking during baking.
  4. In another bowl, whisk the honey or maple syrup, melted oil, applesauce, eggs, yogurt, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined, with a few dry bits remaining.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling to the rim, and sprinkle with turbinado sugar if desired.
  7. Bake for 5 minutes at 425ºF, then reduce the temperature to 350℉ and bake for an additional 15 to 17 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For a dairy-free option, substitute Greek yogurt with a non-dairy alternative.
These muffins can be stored in an airtight container for up to five days.
Feel free to mix in other fruits or nuts for added flavor.
