Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup thick Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain flour
  • 1/2 cup vanilla-flavored protein powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda

Fruit

  • 10 oz fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 360°F (180°C) to ensure even baking once the muffins are placed inside.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, honey, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and olive oil until smooth and fully blended.
  3. Add dry ingredients: Gently stir the flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, and baking soda into the wet mixture. Mix only until combined to avoid dense muffins.
  4. Fold in blueberries: Carefully fold the fresh blueberries into the batter using a spatula, ensuring they do not burst or discolor the batter.
  5. Fill muffin pan: Spoon the batter evenly into a lined muffin pan, filling for 12 regular-sized muffins.
  6. Bake: Place the muffins in the center of the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool: Remove muffins from oven and let them rest in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps maintain their shape and makes them easier to handle.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to keep muffins light and fluffy.
  • Use fresh blueberries for best flavor and texture; frozen can be used but may affect color and moisture.
  • Line muffin tins with paper cups or grease well to prevent sticking.
  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • These muffins can be frozen for up to 2 months; thaw before serving.
