Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 2 cup all-purpose flour you could play around with different types of flours
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 1/3 cup yogurt you can use plain, fruit, vanilla, sour cream, buttermilk or kefir
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil you can also use melted coconut oil or substitute apple sauce to make it even healthier
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs or use 1 whole egg and 2 egg whites
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 1/2 cup mixed fruit I love berries the best
- 1 cup granola or 1/2 cup coarse sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 and either grease a muffin tin with butter/oil/cooking spray or line each section with a muffin paper liner.
- In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon); mix well and set aside.
- In a smaller bowl mix together eggs, yogurt, vanilla, brown sugar and oil (or applesauce). Pour into the centre of the dry mixture (create a well in the dry mix and pour into the centre hole); mix gently.
- Add fruit and gently fold in using a spatula (remember that a gentle hand here will result in a tender muffin).
- Scoop equally into the prepared muffin pan and sprinkle the top with granola or sugar; bake for about 30 minutes or until the top of each muffin springs back when touched lightly.
- Remove from the oven and remove each muffin from the tin; place on a wire rack to cool.
- If you think you may not eat them in a day or so, wrap tightly and freeze for up to 2 months.
