I love it when I find new recipes to try out. I follow so many foodie pages on Facebook that I’m always getting great ideas for new things to try.
A few weeks back, I came across a post from The New Modern Mama blog where she talked about trying some new muffins at her house. They sounded good to me and I had everything for them so the next day I tried them at my house. They were great!
I made them for an after school snack and then there were leftovers for the next morning as well. I made a few changes:
*I used nonfat vanilla yogurt, not greek yogurt.
*I used Truvia rather than Stevia and followed the measurement guidelines on the Truvia package.
*I had both “quick” Steel Cut Oats and the regular kind. The quick kind are softer and I thought they’d blend easier, so I used those.
*Although I used my blender, if I made them again, which I hope to, I’d use a food processor. My blender had a hard time.
They were good, they were something new and different and everyone loved them. This recipe is a keeper for us, for sure. I hope you’ll try it too! I know that you can try other fruits in the recipe besides blueberries, so next time I just might do that!
Thanks to the New Modern Mama for sharing!
