Healthy Greek Yogurt Apple Muffins (Naturally Sweetened + So Cozy!)
There’s something so comforting about warm apple muffins baking in the oven, especially on busy mornings when you want something quick, nourishing, and naturally sweet. These soft and fluffy Greek yogurt apple muffins are made with simple, wholesome ingredients, lightly sweetened with honey, and packed with cozy cinnamon flavor. They’re perfect for breakfast, snacks on the go, or a healthy treat for the whole family. Even better? They come together in under 30 minutes and use ingredients you probably already have on hand.
Tools & Utensils You’ll Need
Nothing fancy here, just a few basic kitchen essentials:
- Mixing bowls (one large, one medium)
- Whisk
- Spatula
- Non-toxic muffin tin
- Muffin liners (or can use avocado oil)
- Measuring cups + spoons
- Cooling rack (optional but helpful)
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour or GF 1:1 flour
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 1/2 cups chopped apples (I used organic honeycrisp)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Splash of milk (I used organic whole milk)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a muffin tin with paper liners or avocado oil.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- Mix the wet ingredients: In a separate large bowl, whisk the eggs, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine everything: Gently fold the dry mixture into the wet mixture. Stir until just combined and be careful not to overmix.
- Splash of milk (optional): If batter looks to dry you may need to add a couple splashes of milk.
- Fold in the apples: Add the chopped apples to the wet ingredients.
- Fill the muffin tins: Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
- Bake: Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips & Variations
You can add:
- A handful of chopped walnuts or pecans
- A touch of maple syrup instead of honey
These muffins also freeze really well, just store them in an airtight bag and grab one whenever you need a quick, wholesome snack!
