I was looking for something quick, healthy and sweet, and these did the trick. I read four of five recipes to get a sense of ratios and flavour combinations, and this is what I ended up with... —lizzieshupak

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 2 cups Wholemeal flour (I'm sure you could do half wholemeal, half white, or even use some spelt flour)
  • 2 tablespoons Brown cane sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Cinnamon (I actually used a dessert-spoon so that the flavour would be more subtle)
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 Lightly beaten egg
  • 1/2 cup Honey
  • 2 cups Runny low-fat vanilla yoghurt
  • 2 tablespoons Melted butter
  • 1 cup Blueberries or apples or cherries or dried apricots or nuts (basically have fun and put in what you like)
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 (F) / 220 (C).
  2. Grease muffin pan.
  3. Mix dry ingredients together in a bowl.
  4. Beat wet ingredients together in another bowl.
  5. Fold dry ingredients into the wet, along with the fruit/nuts of your choice.
  6. DO NOT OVERMIX.
  7. Spoon mixture into muffin pan.
  8. Bake for 15 - 20 minutes until golden brown and muffins are coming away from the tin at the sides.
  9. Let cool in the pan for a couple of minutes and then transfer to wire rack to cool.
  10. Store in an airtight container or in freeze and use when you're ready.
