Blueberry, Yogurt and Whole-wheat Muffins

This blueberry muffin recipe is a healthy vegetarian alternative to higher calorie muffins. It uses only 7 ingredients and they’ll keep for over half a week, healthy and yum!

To this day I have not met anybody that doesn’t like blueberries, I mean what’s not to like? Packed full with vitamins and antioxidants these little guys are not only damn tasty but they are also extremely good for you too. So with this in mind I have added them to this relatively guilt free recipe that any muffin (and of course blueberry) lover will come back to again and again.

Guilt free you say? Well I think so, with a marriage of whole-wheat flour, yogurt and not a piece of butter in sight it sounds pretty healthy to me. And if you’re not into healthy well don’t let this turn you off cause these little muffins are so full of flavor and texture you won’t even notice.

A simple and delicious blueberry muffin recipe

The best thing about this blueberry muffin recipe is that the muffins are not overly sweet, so you can pretty much get away with eating them at anytime of the day and you don’t have to feel guilty about it, (not that you would cause they are guilt free remember).

Frozen blueberries give the muffin a swirling dripping effect but fresh blueberries can be used if in season. It’s totally up to you what you want to use.

Look at that bursting with blueberries with every bite.

These muffins taste the best when eaten freshly baked but they will keep for 3-4 days when kept in an airtight container in a dry cool place. But I guarantee they will be devoured quickly, if not immediately like my own batch was.
