HOME-MADE CHERRY VANILLA YOGURT MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line your muffin pan with liners or spray with baking spray. I used silicone muffin pans and sprayed it with olive oil spray. Set aside.
• In one bowl, add flour, salt, baking powder together and mix with a whisk.
• In another bowl, lightly beat egg and add in yogurt, sugar, oil or applesauce, vanilla and milk and mix until well blended.
• Add dry mixture to wet mixture until just blended. (Don't over mix - you will get tough muffins!)
• Toss fresh or frozen cherries with 1 tablespoon flour & 1 tablespoon sugar before adding to muffin mixture and fold about 3-4 times and then scoop muffin mixture into prepared muffin cups. Will rise 1/2 inch or more.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until tops become golden brown.
• Recipe makes 12-14 regular muffins.

BLUEBERRY CHERRY MUFFINS MADE WITH GREEK YOGURT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 and line a muffin tin with 12 muffin liners and set aside.
• In a bowl (I didn't even use a stand mixer for this!) microwave the butter for 30 seconds so that it is nice and soft or almost melted. Add the sugar and combine until it is almost creamy looking.
• Next add the egg and stir until it is incorporated, then add the Greek yogurt followed by the lemon zest. Stir it a few times so that everything is mixed together.
• Now add the flour, baking soda and pinch of salt and mix, but don't over mix (as soon as it looks combined stop stirring).
• Add the berries, stir a few times, and then spoon into lined muffin cups (the batter should fill 3/4 way up).
• For the streusel topping: In a small bowl add 1 of butter and melt it in the microwave, then add the flour and sugar. Evenly distribute a pinch of the topping onto all of the muffins, then sprinkle a pinch of sanding sugar (if using) over the top of each muffin.
• Bake muffins for 20-25 minutes until the top is slightly golden brown. Remove from oven, let sit for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack and when cooled down, enjoy!
