Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated erythritol or stevia baking blend
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk or low fat milk
  • 2 tablespoons light olive oil or neutral oil

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease each cup.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whisk the eggs, Greek yogurt, sweetener, vanilla, milk, and oil until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and gently fold with a spatula just until no dry flour remains; do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the blueberries with slow, gentle motions so the berries stay whole and evenly distributed.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two thirds full.
  7. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the tops are set, lightly golden at the edges, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

- Use frozen blueberries straight from the freezer without thawing to prevent the batter from turning gray.
- For the most tender texture, stop mixing as soon as the flour disappears; overmixing makes muffins tough.
- Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- To freeze, place cooled muffins on a tray until firm, then transfer to a freezer bag and freeze for up to 2 months.
