Introduction

I made these lemon, blueberry, oat and white chocolate chip muffins for the Father's Day breakfast at school, boosting the "power" of them with some vanilla protein powder and low fat yogurt and adding a bit of childlike whimsy with Cheerios! Adapted from http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/blueberry-

    1 tbsp lemon extract
    1 egg
    1 ½ cups flour

Beat together the yoghurt, milk, lemon zest, butter, sugars, vanilla, lemon extract and egg until well combined.
