Skinny Blackberry Muffins

Jul.posted by Paula 41 Comments

Jump to Recipe

My Skinny Blackberry Muffins can also be Skinny Blueberry Muffins if you prefer. WJ doesn’t like the ‘seeds’ in blackberries and much prefers blueberry muffins that why I made blackberry er, I mean, I was out of blueberries and was forced to make these blackberry muffins instead. Yeah, that’s it!

Before we get to the recipe, let me tell you what my boys have concocted! So they are well aware of my blog. They helped with many posts and both want to do a video for you. I’m all about pimping out my kids for a click, we just haven’t had the time to make it yet. So, they’re always coming up with recipe ideas and experiments. It’s really funny. This time, however, instead of a recipe, they have decided that I need to become affiliated with a video/ds gaming company and test new games, and by ‘me’ they mean ‘them’ because, well, I don’t even know how to turn on the ds game!

Those silly boys, they really want me to make money at this blogging gig……. NOT!

Prep Time: 8 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 28 minutes
Servings: 12 muffins

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt nonfat plain
  • 1 large egg beaten or Egg Beaters equivalent
  • 3/4 cup almond milk unsweetened
  • 1 cup blackberries fresh or frozen

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325F degrees. Spray muffin tins with nonstick spray or use cupcake liners. (Muffins may stick to liners so spray them as well if you use liners.)
  • In a large bowl, add flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the honey and brown sugar together. It will be thick. Add the apple sauce, yogurt, and beaten egg.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Add milk. Fold together carefully. It will be thick. Add more Greek yogurt 1 T at a time if you feel they are too thick. Gently fold in the blackberries. Do not overmix or muffins wil be tough.
  • Divide the batter between 12 muffin tins. Fill 3/4 full. You may have more than 12 muffins depending on the size of your tins. Just fill another tin if you do. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until lightly browned on the edges. When done, the center should spring back after being touched.
  • Great served hot by themselves or with honey.

    Wow, these muffins look definitely amazing, I can’t believe they are actually good for me! I wish I could have one of them right now… or ten, because what does it matter when the nutrition facts are this flawless? ;–)

    Hi PMc Paula,

    Thanks for linking up last week to Sugar & Slice Sunday. You’ve been featured on tonights link party – hurrah!

    Now I have an excuse to eat 1,485,375,375 muffins! 😀 Your skinny muffins look so delicious and jam packed with blueberries. Makes me want to put my hand through the screen and grab them! In fact, they look so deliciously moist that it almost looks as if you’ve glazed them too. Yum!

    I do hope you’ll stop by and link up to this weeks party again, and add our link to your party page.

      OHhh, a glaze…a glaze would be really good! I’ll remember that for next time.

      My apologies for not having your party on the page, I’m in the process of updating it and between looking at 2 spreadsheets and the page, I overlooked it. I have it added back now.

      Thanks for the feature!! I was pleasantly surprised when I hopped over to link up to see my muffin recipe!
      Have a great week!

    Oh. I wanted to highlight you on the Friday Flash Blog on The Jenny Evolution but you have your photos blocked. (Which I’m sure you did on purpose. People steal everything, don’t they?) Well, I just wanted to say I loved your post and will be making these blueberry muffins in the near future 🙂

    If it were up to my daughter, I would be posting about kale and fruit smoothies everyday 🙂 She has only been back for a month, so she is still a bit confused by the whole thing. Who knows, she might want to be in her own video soon. Awesome muffins Paula!

    These look great, Paula, and I love the lightened up recipe! Can I substitute regular milk if I don’t have almond milk on hand?

      Yes, they just won’t be as ‘skinny’ but the texture should be the same.

      Yeah, I found that about a month or so ago after going through several. I could never get the one on Jetpack to pull anything but the day’s stats. I like that it takes up less space. I actually haven’t looked at the stats on it thought. Don’t know if people click the tabs, etc.

      I need to feel lighter myself after Blueberry pound cake all week :/ Funny, the boys give me food suggestions too, they’ve actually had a couple of good ones (out of, say, 1,000!)
