Mini muffins are great for little ones and adults love them too!

Add the eggs and whisk to combine.

For this recipe I recommend using fresh blueberries.

After rinsing, let the blueberries dry completely on a paper towel before adding to the batter.

You want them to be dry before adding to the muffin batter.

Allow the muffins to cool for 3-5 minutes in the pan, then use a knife along the edges to remove the mini muffins onto a wire cooling rack.

How to store

Leftover blueberry muffins should be stored in an airtight container or bag in the fridge once cooled.

These mini blueberry muffins have just 83 calories each and 2 grams of protein!

So light and fluffy and just the right amount of sweetness from juicy fresh blueberries.

Greek yogurt is the secret ingredient that I often use in muffin recipes.

Not only does it make them super fluffy, but it adds a hidden protein punch.

Give these blueberry muffins a try, you will love them!
