BLUEBERRY-LEMON MUFFINS

There is something about cooler weather that brings out the baker in me.  Yesterday was a bit cooler, so I decided to try this lemon blueberry muffin recipe I had found.  I was glad that I did...not too sweet with a granola topping.  Yummy!

 The recipe is really easy.  You can put it together in about 10-15 minutes and then another 15 minutes or so for baking and you'll be enjoying these within the hour.

INGREDIENTS:

2 cups flour

3/4 cup sugar

2 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

1 cup low-fat lemon yogurt

2 eggs, slightly beater

1 egg white

ready for the oven

1/4 cup melted butter

1 cup fresh blueberries 

(granola for topping)

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly spray muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray ( I chose to use my silicone liners instead).

In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients and blend.  In a small bowl, whisk yogurt, eggs, the egg white, and melted butter.  Stir yogurt mixture into the flour mixture just until combined.  Stir in blueberries.

Into each muffin cup, spoon about 1/4 cup batter (I used the entire batter to make 12 large muffins); sprinkle each with about 1 tsp. of granola if desired. Bake until golden brown, about 15-18 minutes.   Enjoy!
