Equipment

  • Muffin Tin
  • mixing bowls
  • whisk
  • spoon
  • Ice cream scoop

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¾ cups white whole wheat flour or regular whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon fine salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon optional
  • cup melted coconut oil or extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ cup honey or maple syrup
  • 2 eggs preferably at room temperature
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup blueberries fresh or frozen
  • 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar for sprinkling on top

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease all 12 cups on your muffin tin if necessary or use muffin liners.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 ¾ cups of the flour with the baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Mix together with a whisk.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine the oil and honey or maple syrup and beat together with a whisk. Add the eggs and beat well, then add the yogurt and vanilla. Mix well.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix with a big spoon, just until combined. In a small bowl, toss the blueberries with the remaining 1 teaspoon flour and gently fold them into the batter.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the 12 muffin cups. Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with turbinado sugar. Bake for 16 to 19 minutes, or until golden.
  • Place the muffin tin on a cooling rack to cool. Store leftovers covered at room temperature for 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
