These muffins are enhanced by the creamy texture of Greek yogurt and a hint of cinnamon, making them a perfect snack or breakfast option. This recipe is simple to follow and results in moist, fluffy muffins that everyone will love.

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease each cavity with a non-stick spray.
2. Prepare Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup self-raising flour, 1 tsp cinnamon, and 1/2 cup brown sugar.
- Stir until well mixed and set aside.
3. Mash Bananas:
- In a separate bowl, mash the 2 bananas until smooth.
- If you prefer chunkier muffins, you can leave some small chunks of banana.
4. Combine Wet Ingredients:
- Add the mashed bananas to the dry ingredients, followed by 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1 lightly beaten egg, 2 cups Greek yogurt, and 1/4 cup olive oil.
- Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix as this can result in dense muffins.
5. Fold in Blueberries:
- Gently fold in the 1/2 cup blueberries into the batter, making sure they are evenly distributed.
6. Fill Muffin Tin:
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
7. Bake:
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- The tops should be lightly golden brown and firm to the touch.
8. Cool:
- Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes.
- Then transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Serve:
- Enjoy your Banana Berry Yogurt Muffins fresh, or store them in an airtight container for up to three days.
- These muffins can also be frozen for up to a month. Simply thaw at room temperature or warm in the microwave before serving.

Tips:

- Ensure the bananas are ripe for optimal sweetness and moisture.

- Gently fold the blueberries into the batter to prevent them from bursting and staining the mixture.

- Use an ice cream scoop to evenly distribute the batter into the muffin tin.

- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

- Adding a sprinkle of oats or nuts on top of the muffins before baking can add a nice crunch.

These Banana berry yoghurt muffins are an easy yet delicious way to satisfy your sweet tooth while incorporating wholesome ingredients. Perfect for breakfast on the go or a healthy snack, this recipe is sure to become a family favorite. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature, with a smear of butter or a dollop of extra Greek yogurt.
