Blueberries are one of Harry’s favourite fruits! This weekend I decided to play around in the kitchen and have a go at making some baby/toddler friendly blueberry muffins.. The result was a big hit with our whole family!
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 large egg whites
- 120g plain Greek yoghurt
- 2/3 drops of vanilla essence
- 2 tbsp golden syrup (You can use honey instead for children over 1 if you want to)
- 240g self raising flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 180ml whole milk
- 2 large handfuls of fresh blueberries
- Butter or oil to grease the tin, we used coconut oil
Method
- In a bowl, mix the egg whites, butter, vanilla essence and yoghurt until smooth ish
- Pour in the golden syrup (I like to boil the kettle and hold the tablespoon over the steam before dipping it in the syrup. It helps it slide off easier!).
- Add the baking powder then, a bit at a time, add the flour and milk. Add the blueberries and mix well.
- Spoon equal amounts of the mixture into a greased muffin tray (you should get about 12.)
- Bake at 180°c for about 20/25 minutes, until cooked through.
- Allow to cool in the tray for 10 minutes then transfer to a cooking rack.
- Enjoy!
Im doing it right now but it not working it is sooooo liquid not like the photo at all !!! Whyyy
Ooh I’m not sure? Did you follow the quantities? :-/
Yes 🙁 120 g isnt half cup ? How come 120g flour 120g yogurt ( liquid ) 180 ml ( milk ) ?! In the photo its shown like the mix is sticky right ? But how it came like that ?! :/ :/ confuse
I’m not sure on the conversions to cups sorry, when I made it with these quantities the mix went thicker and stickier.. It was still fairly runny though. Maybe try adding more flour? :-/
Ooh it should be 240g flour! I was thinking when I read that it sounded wrong!
Can i use vanilla powder instead of vanilla essence?
I can’t see why not!
Nightmare getting them out of the tray without muffin cases 🙁 all mangled but hopefully kids will still eat them!
Oh no! I used to have that problem and then my mum bought me a good non stick muffin tray and now they slide out really easily x
Brilliant recipe!!! They look great! Can I freeze them? X
Yep 🙂 they should be fine in the freezer 🙂
Made these with semi-skimmed milk and natural yoghurt fir my 2 and 3 year old. First batch failed way too much milk I think….second in the oven now 🙂
I hope your second batch came out ok! 🙂
