Fill muffin pans 1/3 full and then add 1 tsp or so of the remaining yogurt. Top with more muffin mixture to 2/3 full.
Bake for about 20 minutes or until done.

Makes about 20 regular size muffins.

I added sprinkled sugar to the tops of a few of muffins that gave them a wondrful crunch. I did not add this sugar into the calorie count.

I mixed a few recipes and ideas found here to get this recipe.

    Delicious, moist, low cal, low fat. Just what I needed. Make these with regular vanilla yogurt if you don't have blueberry. Also do .5 cup reg sugar and .5 cup brown - tasty - 2/13/17

    Love this recipe though I do make some changes:
    - 1 c oat flour and 1 1/2 c buckwheat flour
    - half cane sugar and half brown sugar
    - vanilla nonfat yogurt
    - blueberry applesauce

    Left the yogurt out of the middle - 4/18/12

    This turned out great! I used 1/2 brown sugar and 1/2 white sugar. Really yummy! - 10/9/11

    This sounds delicious and I can't wait to try them, but I'm pretty useless when it comes to baking. Could somebody advise me is it possible to substitute applesauce with yogurt? Usually my substitutions go very wrong :-) - 4/6/11

    YUM-O - made these today, were a huge hit. I got 24 out of the recipe and used pink sugar sprinkles to make them a little more crunchy and fun for the kids. - 5/14/10

    I really liked them but, I did modify it (a fair bit) to suit my needs. For example I used brown sugar and plain yogurt. I ended up leaving out the tsp of yogurt in the middle and using only 3/4 cup of yogurt. I found the extra yogurt didn't add value and made it too complicated and messy. - 5/7/10

    I'm not sure about these. I found the muffin part to be too sweet, but without much flavour (though I did use plain yogurt). If I make them again, I'll definitely add lemon juice to them for a more interesting flavour. A good moist recipe for using whole wheat flour, though. - 4/19/10

    These were very moist - I goofed & used frozen black raspberries instead of blueberries (Note to self: label frozen fruit!) - I also used 1/3 c. Splenda to substitute for sugar and didn't notice the difference. - 1/24/10

    These were great, I used Dannon Vanilla and they were still amazing. Thanks for this great recipe - 4/7/09

    Muffins were great! I personally like all the yogurt mixed in, some in the middle seemed kind of soggy. - 4/5/09
