Description

Delicious and healthy blueberry muffins made with whole wheat pastry flour.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • 0 cup quick oats
  • 0 cup vanilla whey protein powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0 tsp baking soda
  • 0 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 0 cup honey
  • 0 cup melted coconut oil
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0 milk (up to ¾ cup, as needed to thin batter)
  • 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat pastry flour, quick oats, vanilla whey protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, kosher salt, and ground cinnamon until evenly combined.
  3. In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs until slightly frothy. Stir in the plain Greek yogurt, honey, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and gently stir until just combined. If the batter is too thick, add milk 2 tablespoons at a time until it reaches a thick but pourable consistency.
  5. Fold in the blueberries, taking care not to overmix to avoid bursting them.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
  7. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the muffins to rest in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For an extra touch, sprinkle some cinnamon sugar on top before baking.
  • These muffins can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
