Yogurt Blueberry Muffins with Lemon Crust Sugar

I woke up unusually early to make some fresh bakes for breakkie.



Main ingredient of the day: Blueberries - with strong antioxidant properties :)



and turned everything into fresh baked yogurt blueberry muffins



These muffins had the tangy lemon flavour due to the lemon crust sugar

I always love the combination of yogurt into any baked items. Yogurt is something special that actually produces the baked ones with light, soft and fluffy texture. besides that, I reduced the sugar into 170g to make them into not-too-sweet muffins. As for the sugar crust, I used only one tablespoon instead of two.

When I re-read this recipe while blogging, I realized I made a mistake; I used 200g of superfine flour instead of 250g!!! Anyway, they turned out amazingly great! Yum :)



oozing out...

A bad idea to 'squeeze' them into 10 cups.
