Ingredients

Units Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 egg
  • 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Add-ins

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries or frozen

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with liners or coat it lightly with oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the greek yogurt, milk, honey or maple syrup, egg, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, stir together the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until fully combined.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the muffins tender.
  5. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold the blueberries into the batter, distributing them evenly without breaking them up.
  6. Portion and Bake: Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the muffins to cool briefly in the pan, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh or frozen blueberries according to your preference; if using frozen, do not thaw to prevent color bleeding.
  • To make these muffins vegan, substitute the egg with a flax egg and use maple syrup instead of honey.
  • For a gluten-free version, replace the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend and ensure oats are certified gluten-free.
  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • These muffins can be frozen for up to 3 months; thaw before serving.
