Ingredients
½cupplain nonfat Greek yogurt
1egg
2tablespoonsmelted butter
1-½teaspoonsorange zest
1cupall-purpose flour
⅓cupzero-calorie sweetener (I used Lankato Monkfruit)
1-½teaspoonsbaking powder
¼teaspoonbaking soda
¾cupfresh or frozen blackberries (I used frozen)
1-½teaspoonssanding sugar, for topping (optional but highly recommended)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F degrees and line a standard muffin pan with 6 liners and lightly spray with nonstick baking spray.
Whisk together the yogurt, egg, melted butter and orange zest in a small mixing bowl until thoroughly combined.
In another clean mixing bowl, whisk together the flower, sweetener, baking powder and baking soda until well mixed. Gently fold in the blackberries and lightly toss until coated with flour mixture.
Stir the yogurt mixture into the flour mixture and mix just until the flour mixture is absorbed.
Divide the batter evenly among the 6 prepared muffin cups. Lightly sprinkle the sanding sugar over the tops of the muffins.
Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden and a toothpick inserted near the center of each muffin comes out clean.
Cool in pan for 10 minutes before removing muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store any leftover muffins in an airtight container, or individually wrapped in plastic wrap for a quick grab-n-go snack.
Recipe Notes
Feel free to use either fresh or frozen blackberries to make these muffins. I prefer fresh and since the berries at my local grocery store were not looking very good, I opted for frozen blackberries without any added sugar.Use your favorite zero-calorie sugar substitute: Lankato Monkfruit, In the Raw, Stevia, Swerve, etc. are all good options. I'm on a monkfruit kick at the moment, so that's what I have in my pantry.Sanding sugar is a coarse sugar that is used for decorating baked goods (cookies, muffins, etc.) and can usually be found in the baking section of your grocery store. It generally comes in a variety of colors as well as white/clear.Serving size: 1 muffinClick here to see your WW PersonalPoints for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site.4*PointsPlus (Old plan)
