Can I Use Frozen Blueberries For Blueberry Yogurt Muffins

You can use fresh or frozen blueberries in the Blueberry Yogurt Muffins. The reason why a lot of people reach for fresh is that it won’t color the batter. When you put in frozen blueberries they will bleed, and cause your batter to turn bluish toned. Some people don’t like that, so they only use fresh.

    How Do You Stop Blueberries Sinking in Muffins?

    Nothing is worse than sinking your teeth into your tasty muffins to find there are no blueberries except at the bottom of the muffin. Here is how you easily keep your blueberries throughout your batter.

    Mix in a tablespoon of flour into your muffins, and coat them. Then fold your blueberries with the flour into the batter as the last step before you go to baking it. This will help them to float within the batter. So each bite has tender blueberries.

    Will Greek Yogurt Work For the Blueberry Yogurt Muffins?

    Yes! You can use any brand of yogurt you would like. Just reach for a vanilla yogurt as it will add some flavor to your muffins. If you opt for Greek yogurt it will add some protein to your muffins. It is a taste preference on what brand of yogurt you purchase for the muffins.

    How Long Do Blueberry Muffins Last?

    Best Way to Freeze Blueberry Muffins

    1. These muffins are excellent. I have been using a recipe that tasted great but use a lot more sugar and sour cream so the calorie count was twice what it is for these muffins but these muffins taste just as good. I baked some in regular muffin tins and topped them with honey dipped walnuts which was great. If you try the walnuts spray the entire top of the pan with cooking spray because the honey nut mixture will stick to the pan where the muffin expands out of the hole. The rest of he batter I cooked in a large bakery style muffin tin to see how that would turn out. It took about 28 – 30 minutes to bake those off but they rose beautifully, browned nice on top and were moist and tender inside. This recipe went in the cookbook already. Thanks Stacie.
