Servings & Timing

Servings: 12 muffins
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 18–20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes


Ingredients List

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • ½ cup oats (or oat flour)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons granulated erythritol (or WW-friendly sweetener)

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk (or any low-cal milk)

Berries

  • 1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen — blueberries, raspberries, strawberries chopped)

Optional Add-Ins (still low-point)

  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Cinnamon
  • 1–2 tablespoons sugar-free syrup

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tray with paper liners.


Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together:

  • Almond flour
  • Oats
  • Baking powder
  • Baking soda
  • Salt
  • Sweetener

This ensures the muffins rise evenly and stay light.


Step 3: Mix the Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk until smooth:

  • Greek yogurt
  • Eggs
  • Almond milk
  • Vanilla extract

This mixture should be creamy and thick — the high yogurt content keeps them extra soft.


Step 4: Combine

Add the wet mixture into the dry mixture.

Fold gently using a spatula.

Do not overmix — that can make muffins dense.


Step 5: Add Berries

Fold in the berries carefully so they don’t burst (especially if using frozen).


Step 6: Fill Muffin Cups

Divide batter evenly into 12 muffin liners, filling each about ¾ full.


Step 7: Bake

Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until:

  • tops are golden
  • centers spring back
  • toothpick comes out clean

Let cool for 5–10 minutes.


Additional Notes

  • If using frozen berries, do not thaw — this prevents the batter from turning purple.
  • Add lemon zest for a bright bakery flavor.
  • Muffins become even softer the next day.

Optional Personal Story

These muffins were born from my Sunday meal-prep routine when I wanted a sweet breakfast that wouldn’t blow my points. The first batch smelled like a bakery, and by Monday morning I knew I’d created a new weekly staple. They’re soft, fruity, filling, and guilt-free — and they taste even better the next day.
