Stuck in on a snow day – or any day – is a perfect time to bake a batch of muffins! Not the
cupcake-y kind, full of sugar and unhealthy fats, but this healthy redux of corn muffins. They will immediately become a favorite!
Healthy Blueberry Corn Muffins
Ingredients
- 1 cup organic cornmeal
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup wheat germ
- 1 and 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 2/3 cup plain, whole fat yogurt
- 1/4 cup plus 3 tbsp organic apple juice concentrate, defrosted. (You can save the remainder in a tupperware in the refrigerator)
- 2 eggs
- 1/8 cup organic canola oil
- 1 and 1/2 cup fresh or frozen organic blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Combine the cornmeal, flour, wheat germ and baking soda in a mixing bowl.
- Beat the yogurt, juice concentrate, eggs and oil in a separate bowl.
- Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients and blend well with a few quick strokes.
- Fold in the blueberries quickly until distributed evenly.
- Spoon the batter into 12 muffin tins (I line with paper liners). Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Remove from tins immediately.
