Blueberry Muffin Recipe (Made with Yogurt and No Butter)
Report
The lightest, fluffiest muffins which contain no butter, a lot of fruit, a cup of yogurt, are low in sugar and taste fabulous!
Share:
Ingredients
- 2 cups flour (good quality, avoid bleached, bromated and enriched if possible)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup light olive oil
- 1 cup yogurt (if using Greek yogurt, add 1 Tbsp milk or buttermilk)
- 2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen wild/conventional/organic)
- ¼ tsp demerara sugar (or Swedish pearl sugar to top, if desired)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF/ 175℃.
- Sift flour, baking powder, and baking soda into a large bowl.
- Stir in the sugar.
- In a separate bowl or measuring jug, whisk together the eggs, olive oil, and yogurt until smooth.
- Wash the blueberries and dry. If using frozen berries, toss them in a teaspoonful of flour to help them not to fall whilst baking.
- Pour the yogurt mixture into the dry ingredients.
- Slowly stir together in the large bowl until just combined. DO NOT OVER STIR as it will make the muffins too dense.
- Gently add the blueberries with just a few turns. (Keep a few aside for putting on top of the muffins, if you like.) Fill the muffin cases. Sprinkle with a little sugar if desired. This makes a crunchy top and adds a little sweetness.
- Bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Notes
- Use almost any fruit to like in these muffins. All the fruits I've tried have turned out brilliantly: peach, rhubarb, cranberry/orange (using fresh and dried cranberries), and of course, plums.
- You can bake the entire mixture in a loaf pan, too! The only thing is that it will take about 45 minutes or possibly longer to bake.
