Why This Dish Is So Special

These muffins are bursting with sweet blueberries and a bright lemon flavor that makes every bite refreshing. They are moist, tender, and perfect for breakfast or a snack any time of day.

Expert Cooking Tips

- Use fresh or frozen blueberries, but if frozen, do not thaw to prevent the batter from becoming too wet.
- Gently fold the blueberries into the batter to avoid crushing them and turning the batter purple.
- For extra zest, add a little lemon zest to the sugar before mixing to release more citrus aroma.

Directions

Heat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and either grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners. In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, melted butter, egg, egg white, lemon zest, and lemon juice until everything is well combined. In a larger bowl, mix the flour, protein powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir just until combined; the batter will be thick. Then, add the almond milk a little at a time, stirring until the batter smooths out. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries so they don’t break up. Scoop the batter evenly into your muffin tin and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until the tops turn golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Let them cool for a few minutes before digging in!

How To Serve This Dish

Enjoy these muffins warm with a pat of butter or a drizzle of honey. They also pair wonderfully with a cup of tea or a glass of cold milk for a comforting treat.

Food Storage Tips

Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer storage, freeze them in a sealed bag for up to two months and thaw at room temperature before serving.
