These are my healthy blueberry muffins that I like to make in bulk and freeze for breakfasts. My recipe makes 30 decent sized muffins are are round about 101 Calories and 3g Fat.
Ingredients:
750g Self Raising Flour
375g Golden Caster Sugar
3 tsp Bicarbonate of Soda
375g Blueberries
6 Medium eggs
9 tbsp Vegetable Oil
300ml Skimmed milk
375g Vanilla fat free yogurt
120g Natural yogurt
Step 1. Get t'oven on! Crank it up to 200c (this is not a fan oven) and put your muffin cases into the muffin cases holder thing, find your weighing scales and get two mixing bowls on the go. And the sieve (not the colander like I did first time... I was tired)
Step 2. Sieve the flour and bicarbonate of soda into a mixing bowl, give it a gentle swish around before adding in the caster sugar & blueberries. Mix it all together until you have an evenly dispersed amount of blueberries.
Step 3. In a really big measuring jug pour the milk in and mix in the oil. Once that is nice and blended in, pour in the yogurts and splodge in the eggs. Using a fork mix the ingredients together.
Step 4. Separate the flour mixture so there is a hole in the middle of it and pour in your jug. Then really gently, fold in the flour around it until you eventually get a nice gooey bowl of goodness.
Step 5. Spoon your mixture into the muffin cases making sure there is a teeny wee bit of room at the top for the muffin to rise and spill over just a little bit. Not too much.. just a bit.
Step 6. Oven time. I find in my oven they take 20 minutes but I know in fan ovens it can take just 10. If like mine it takes 20 minutes, after the initial 10 mins alternate the trays. The best way to tell if they are done is to poke a cocktail stick into them and if they come out wet or sticky then they need more time. Obviously if they are turning black on top then take them out!!
Step 7. Put them on a cooling tray and leave them be for 10 minutes. Once done, dust with icing sugar and enjoy! As I said, I freeze them so to defrost take them out the night before and pop in the fridge. Heated up in the morning with a sneaky bit of butter makes them completely amazing if they weren't already.
Enjoy!
