Ingredients

  1. White whole wheat flour: A softer whole wheat flour that yields lighter, fluffier baked goods.
  2. Rolled oats: Adds texture and extra whole grains.
  3. Chocolate chips: Mini or regular chocolate chips work well; use your preferred variety.
  4. Blueberries: Fresh or frozen; wild blueberries are a nice small variety but any will do.
  5. Greek yogurt: Plain Greek yogurt adds protein and moisture.
  6. Milk: Any milk you normally use for baking will work, including dairy-free options.
  7. Brown sugar: Provides sweetness and a touch of caramel flavor; a little extra is sprinkled on top before baking.
  8. Eggs: Bind ingredients and provide structure.
  9. Oil: Neutral oils like avocado or canola work well; melted butter is an option too.
  10. Vanilla extract: Enhances overall flavor.
  11. Baking powder & salt

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, milk, brown sugar, eggs, oil, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the white whole wheat flour, rolled oats, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined—do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips and blueberries until evenly distributed.
  6. Spoon the batter into a muffin pan lined with paper liners or a silicone pan. Sprinkle a little brown sugar on top of each muffin for a light crunchy finish.
  7. Bake for 18–22 minutes at 350°F, until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool slightly before serving.

Recipe FAQ

How to store

Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. To freeze, place muffins in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months; thaw and reheat as needed.

Can I use regular whole wheat or all-purpose flour?

Yes. Regular whole wheat will work but may produce slightly denser muffins. All-purpose flour can be used if you prefer a lighter texture.
