Blueberry Greek Yogurt Muffins

I cannot tell you how many muffin posts are on this blog…well, I could, but it would take entirely too long to count them all. We love them. The kids always want some form of chocolate muffin, and even though I’m a chocolate freak, my absolute favorite muffin is blueberry. The other day I was really craving them…

Real blueberry muffins. No frills, no added crumb topping (even though I love those too), I just wanted a really good, really blueberry muffin.

I went searching through my and found that had blueberries, Greek yogurt and whole wheat.

They were so healthy, I didn’t feel guilty about slathering on a little butter 🙂 Or eating more than one. Or two. Or…let’s not talk about it, let’s just say craving satisfied.

2 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour (can use a mix of all purpose and whole wheat too)
1/2 cup sugar (may want a little more if blueberries are not very sweet)

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

Pinch of salt
1 heaping cup plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup applesauce (I used unsweetened)
1/4 cup milk (I used almond milk)
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

pecans, coarsely chopped (optional, for tops)

raw sugar (optional, for tops)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Generously grease a muffin pan, or use cupcake liners. Spray the liners well with non-stick spray if using. (*important*)
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, spices and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine the yogurt, applesauce, milk, egg, and vanilla.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry, and mix just until combined.
Fold in blueberries. Mixture will be thick.
Fill muffin cups 3/4ths full.
Top with pecans and raw sugar if using. I sprinkled a little wheat germ on mine as well.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned and done.

(Made 18 muffins)
