Ingredients
  • 1 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp cream of tarter
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup avocado oil, coconut or olive oil
  • 1/2 cup honey (or combo of honey & maple syrup)
  • 1 tbsp pomegranate molasses (optional)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup blueberries + 1 tbsp flour (mix together until flour lightly coats blueberries)
Method

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and prepare muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or fluted muffin cups.

Combine flours, cream of tarter, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in large bowl. In a medium bowl, whisk together oil, honey/maple syrup, pomegranate molasses and eggs. Next add the yogurt & vanilla extract and thoroughly mix. Next, add to dry ingredients with consideration placed on avoiding over-mixing at this stage. Fold in blueberries slowly.

Spoon into prepared muffin tin and bake in preheated oven for 16-18 minutes or until butter knife/toothpick comes out clean and the muffins are golden. Allow to cool on rack 5-10 min, then remove muffins from tin by gently loosening around edges with butter knife. Have a muffin!
