MEGA BLUEBERRY MUFFINS
This is one of the recipes included in my book “Walker to 30 Minute Runner”!
About one hour prior to a run I am usually looking for a light snack. When these Mega Muffins are on hand I eat one before heading out. With oats, Greek yogurt, and blueberries, they pack a nutritious punch as well as being yummy!
*I choose organic flour for all my baking. Non-organic wheat crops are genetically modified to allow them to be sprayed prior to harvest. These non-organic crops are sprayed with glyphosate for easier harvest. I prefer to make choices that limit the amount of herbicides and pesticides used.
2 cups organic* flour
1 cup regular oats
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups plain non-fat Greek yogurt
2 eggs, lightly beaten
4 Tbsp melted unsalted butter (slightly cooled)
1 tsp vanilla extract 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease muffin tins. Mix flour, oats, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Blend yogurt, eggs, cooled melted butter and vanilla in a separate bowl, and then fold into dry ingredients. Gently mix in blueberries. Fill muffin tins and bake 22-24 minutes until golden and springy on top when touched.
ENJOY!
