Easy Blueberry Muffins are light and sweet and bursting with blueberries and a hint of lemon.
A few weeks ago we went to my sister’s house for a small get together. Just before I left she asked me if I would like to take some fresh blueberries. They were leaving on vacation in a couple of days and didn’t want the blueberries to go bad while they were gone. Of course I accepted them.
Now that I had the blueberries what should I make? I had already made the delicious Blueberry Crumb Bars and the amazing Glazed Lemon Blueberry Pound Cake. I realized, however, that I didn’t have any blueberry muffins on the blog. Everyone loves blueberry muffins. So I must make them…for you, my fans. I wouldn’t be so selfish as to just make them for me. 😉 I will, but I will share them with you!
I wanted muffins to be a little bit healthier but not too far out there. So I added some plain greek yogurt to the muffins. In addition, I used Whey Low sugar substitute instead of regular sugar.
For what occasional will you make these Easy Blueberry muffins?

- In a medium bowl mix together the egg, lemon juice, vanilla, oil, and greek yogurt.
- Stir the egg mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined. Batter will be thick. If necessary, add a little milk to thin out.

- Using an ice cream scoop, scoop batter into a greased muffin tin and bake for 15-18 minutes.
