Jacky's Fruit and Yogurt Muffins

I really enjoyed these muffins. Not only are they tasty, but they are really easy and fast to make. I made some substitutions based on what I had on hand: I used whole wheat flour in place of all-purpose, maple syrup in place of sugar, and plain Greek yogurt. Since my yogurt was plain, I added additional flavorings to our tastes: 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp nutmeg, 1/2 tsp cardamom, 1/4 tsp salt, 1 1/2 tsps vanilla extract, 1/4 tsp almond extract, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. I really like that this is also a muffin recipe that's very easy to tailor to what flavors/seasonings/extracts/berries you prefer. I will definitely make these again! Thank you for the recipe! (I got 16 muffins out of the recipe, and they only needed 23 minutes to bake.)

These muffins are absolutely DELISH!!! Yes, the batter is very dry, but I had used plain greek yogurt. Because it was so dry I added 1/8 c. half and half cream. I used 3 cups of frozen Saskatoon berries. Admittedly, I was very skeptical when putting the muffins in the pan because the batter was so dry. I sprinkled the top of the batter with 'Sugar In the Raw' crystals and baked as instructed. The 12 muffins turned out so good! Large, Moist, and Beautiful!!! I will use this recipe again for sure!!!

I made it yesterday and they were gone by tonight. I have to admit, I used half the amount of flour (on accident) and they came out so fluffy, obviously, everyone loved them. I used blueberry chobani yogurt (it has jelly on the bottom) and used raisins instead of blueberries. Today I put the right amount of flour, cherry chobani yogurt and dried cherries. You can't go wrong with this recipe even if you alter it! Delicious!

Very easy to make, and they look like a bakery muffin and so good and moist. I cut the sugar in half and always use vanilla yogurt with all fruit. My favourtite is when made with both blueberries and raspberries combined, made in mini loaf pans. I get 8 minis with this recipe. EDIT: This continues to be my "go to" muffin recipe. There are so many muffin recipes out there, but with that comes a lot of fails. This one is reliable! The variations are endless, and does well doing a half batch. I use Greek yogurt now, half the sugar, nutri flour and add a bit of almond milk if it looks too dry. The dryness depends on the brand of yogurt I use.
