Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour unbleached
  • ¾ cup almond flour
  • ½ cup sugar I use raw cane sugar.
  • zest of one large lemon about one tablespoon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder aluminum-free
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ cup yogurt plain
  • 1 egg
  • 2-3 tablespoon lemon juice 1 large lemon, juiced
  • 6 tablespoon olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 cup blueberries

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400° Fahrenheit
  • Add the first six ingredients together in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Mix well.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, add the next four ingredients. Mix well.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients.
  • Mix just well enough so that all ingredients are combined. There should be lumps in the batter. Do not overmix.
  • Gently fold blueberries into the batter.
  • Divide batter evenly into a lined muffin tin (12 muffins).
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean*

Notes

Let the muffins cool completely before eating
*If you make these as lemon muffins, without blueberries, baking time will be about 14 minutes
Using plain Greek yogurt instead of plain traditional yogurt will change the consistency of the muffins (they will be more dense) but they will still taste amazing!
Vanilla or lemon flavored yogurt can be used in place of plain yogurt. Making this substitution will change the nutrition profile of the muffins.
