Description

Simple recipe for moist muffins using yogurt for added moisture and a lighter texture.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup mashed ripe banana (about 1 medium banana)
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh strawberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, egg, Greek yogurt, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Stir in the mashed banana until just mixed. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. A few lumps are fine.
  6. Fold in the chopped strawberries.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • You can substitute whole wheat flour for half of the all-purpose flour for added fiber.
  • For a sweeter muffin, use vanilla Greek yogurt instead of plain.
