BANANA-BLUEBERRY MUFFINS WITH GREEK YOGURT



Banana-Blueberry Muffins with Greek Yogurt image

With blueberries in season, what better way to prepare them than to combine with a banana muffin base? The use of whole wheat flour and replacing much of the sugar in a traditional banana muffin recipe with natural sources like honey, Greek yogurt, and applesauce results in a moist, dense texture. These banana-blueberry muffins make a light, satisfying breakfast or dessert.

1 cup mashed ripe bananas
¼ cup honey
¼ cup unsweetened applesauce
¼ cup packed brown sugar
¼ cup plain Greek yogurt

2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup frozen blueberries

  • Roll blueberries and 2 teaspoons flour together in a bowl. Fold floured blueberries into the batter.
