Description

Golden, fluffy whole wheat blueberry muffins sweetened naturally with honey. A wholesome breakfast treat packed with juicy berries and Greek yogurt.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 3/4 cups white whole wheat flour
  • 1/3 cup melted coconut oil or extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 heaping cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar (for topping)
  • 1 teaspoon flour (for coating berries)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the oil and honey together. Beat in the eggs, then whisk in the yogurt and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently with a spoon just until combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Toss the blueberries with 1 teaspoon of flour to coat them, then gently fold them into the batter.
  6. Divide the batter evenly into the 12 muffin cups. Sprinkle the tops with turbinado sugar.
  7. Bake for 16 to 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store leftovers at room temperature for 2 days or in the fridge for up to 5 days. For vegan muffins, use flax eggs and maple syrup.
