Recipe for a Healthy Berry Muffin
With Yogurt

Make Whole Wheat Muffins With ANY Berries

These amazing Muffins with Yogurt are easy and healthy!

I made them with fresh raspberries, but they can be made with blueberries, sliced strawberries or blackberries. 

The streusel topping gives them that added "crunch".

These yogurt muffins make a great healthy snack idea for the kid lunches (and the adult lunches too!).

These muffins will freeze well for up to 1 1/2 months!

2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
2 tbsp. granulated sugar

Directions

FOR THE TOPPING

In a bowl, mix the flour and the sugar with the zest.

Add the butter and blend with a fork, until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

FOR THE MUFFINS

In a large bowl, whisk the whole wheat flour with the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and the salt.

In another, smaller bowl, whisk together the egg, yogurt, oil, and the zest.

Stir the egg mixture into the flour mixture just until combined, (batter will be quite thick).

Gently, so as not to break them up too much, stir in the berries.

Spoon the muffin batter into prepared muffin cups, or paper lined muffin cups.

Sprinkle with the topping mixture.

Bake at 375° F for about 22 minutes, or until golden in colour, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. 

ENJOY THESE DELICIOUSLY DELICIOUS HEALTHY MUFFINS!
