How to make Blueberry Greek Yogurt Muffins:
- Step 1– Preheat oven at 400 degrees F. Line a 12 muffin tin pan with parchment muffin liners. Melt butter by microwaving for 45 seconds to a minute and set side.
- Step 2– In a large mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients; almond flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and coconut sugar. Whisk together until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Step 3– In a separate large mixing bowl, combine wet ingredients; eggs, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until all ingredients are well combined.
- Step 4– Pour wet ingredients into dry ones. Whisk all ingredients together forming a batter. Once batter is formed and there aren’t any flour streaks, fold in blueberries. Use an ice cream scooper or spoon to scoop batter into each muffin pan. Filling each about 2/3 of the way up. You don’t want to fill to the top or overfill because the muffins will rise in the oven and this will cause them to overflow.
- Step 5– Place muffin pan in preheated oven and bake for 22 minutes.
- Step 6– Remove muffins from the oven and allow them to cool-down for a couple of minutes. Once the muffin liners are cool enough to handle, carefully remove muffins from the pan and place on a cooling rack. Allow muffins to cool down for at least 10 minutes.
- Step 7– These muffins are amazing warm and right out of the oven! Place any leftover muffins in an airtight container once they have completely cooled-off. Keep refrigerated for up to 7 days for best taste. Freeze in a freezer friendly container or bag and freeze for up to 3-4 months.
Tips for making Blueberry Greek Yogurt Muffins:
- Preheat oven and use a thermometer- This ensures the oven is the correct temperature.
- Do not fill muffins all the way to the top– As they rise in the oven, they will overflow. Fill each muffin about 2/3 up.
- Mix dry ingredients and wet ingredients separately- This will make it easier for both to combine and form a batter without having to over mix it.
- When muffins are ready to come out of the oven, open the oven slowly– This will allow the heat to slowly scape the oven and reduce the chances of the muffins flattening.
- Make sure to transfer muffins to a cooling rack– So that they can cool on the inside and not continue baking. You want nice and moist muffins!
- It’s normal for the muffins to appear dark- This doesn’t mean that they are burnt. The darker shade comes from the coconut sugar. You can always substitute coconut sugar for maple sugar.
Meal Prepping it:
Muffins are always great for meal prepping. Most recipes make a big batch and they make for a filling and quick breakfast or snack. We love having these Blueberry Greek Yogurt Muffins for breakfast. Especially on busy mornings. Make a batch and allow to completely cool off on a cooling rack. Place muffins in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to 5-7 days.
Can muffins be frozen?
Yes, muffins can be frozen which is another way to use them for meal prep. Usually when I’m going to freeze my muffins I double the batch. I keep one in the fridge for quick on-the-go breakfasts or snacks and freeze the second batch. Place muffins in a freezer bag, silicone bag, or freezer friendly container. Keep muffins frozen for 3-4 months. To thaw-out simply leave in the fridge overnight. Place back in the oven to reheat. Avoid using the microwave to reheat as it will make them get soggy.
