Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Whole wheat flour
- 50 grams Oats
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 125 grams Unsweetened applesauce
- 100 grams Plain Greek yogurt
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 60 grams Honey
- 100 grams Fresh blueberries (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the applesauce, Greek yogurt, egg, vanilla extract, and honey until smooth and well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently fold the mixture together using a spatula. Ensure there are no large pockets of flour but do not overmix.
If using fresh blueberries, gently fold them into the batter to distribute evenly.
Spoon the batter equally into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze the muffins and defrost as needed.
