Description

These Greek yogurt muffins are soft, fluffy, and perfectly balanced — not too sweet and full of flavor. The yogurt keeps them moist and adds a protein boost, making them a great choice for breakfast, snacks, or lunchboxes. Customize them with your favorite mix-ins like berries, chocolate chips, or nuts!


Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2%)

  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • Optional: 1 cup mix-ins (blueberries, chocolate chips, chopped nuts, etc.)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  3. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar, Greek yogurt, oil, and vanilla until smooth.

  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined — don’t overmix.

  5. Fold in any mix-ins, if using.

  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups (about 3/4 full).

  7. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick comes out clean.

  8. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.


Notes

  • For fruit muffins, toss berries in a bit of flour to prevent sinking.

  • Use flavored Greek yogurt (like vanilla or lemon) for a twist—just reduce the sugar slightly.

  • These muffins freeze well. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
