Ingredients
3 cups (360 grams) all-purpose flour
1 Tablespoon (14 grams) baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
1/2 cup (106 grams) light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup (99 grams) granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup (170 grams) full-fat sour cream
1 cup (227 grams) mashed ripe banana
1 pint (292 grams) fresh blueberries
1/2 cup toasted walnuts, finely chopped
2 Tablespoons sparkling sugar, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees (F). Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners and it set aside.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt; set aside.
  • In a separate large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, both sugars, eggs, vanilla extract, sour cream, and mashed bananas, mixing until ingredients are fully incorporated.
  • Add the dry mixture of ingredients to the wet mixture of ingredients and, using a rubber spatula, mix until just combined. Do not over mix or your muffins will be dry!
  • Fold in the blueberries and walnuts, mixing just until combined.
  • Divide the batter evenly among prepared muffin tins, filling each tin all the way to the top.
  • Press a few extra blueberries into the top of each muffin and then add sprinkle with sparkling sugar, if using.
  • Bake, in the center of the middle rack, for 24 to 26 minutes, or until the tops are puffed up and richly golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, or with a just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Cool muffins at least 15 minutes in the pan before serving warm or transferring to a cooling rack.

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

1 ½ cups white whole wheat flour
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup frozen blueberries
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour, or as needed

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease the bottom of 12 muffin cups or use paper liners.
