Blueberry Yogurt Muffins

Did you know blueberries are little tiny super fruits? They’re low calorie, and high in antioxidants. They can help the inside of your body (like your bones and digestion) and the outside (your skin)! They’re pretty amazing fruits for being so tiny. I guess good things really do come in small packages.

Today, I decided to use blueberries in a breakfast muffin. I wanted a little pop of sunshine on yet another gloomy June day. Even though the blueberries are sweet this time of year, sometimes I like to add sugar to my muffins like I did today. You can lower the amount of sugar but it will change the texture a bit.

And, if you aren’t feeling these muffins, you can use blueberries in other sweet ways (like my Cornmeal Blueberry Muffins) or savory ways (like my Blueberry Balsamic Glazed Salmon). Let me know which way you like to use them!
