Ingredients
Scale
Muffins:
- 1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 – 5 oz container vanilla greek yogurt (I used siggi’s 2% pumpkin spice)
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 2 whole eggs
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 1/2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen) tossed in 1 Tbsp flour
Glaze:
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 Tbsp Tahini
- 2 Tbsp half & half (or milk)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large bowl, whisk dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon).
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add wet ingredients (yogurt, pumpkin, eggs, vanilla, and brown sugar). Mix on medium until all ingredients are well-combined.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients in 3-4 batches while on medium speed, taking care not to over mix the batter.
- Fold in blueberries, reserving about 1/4 cup (use these to top muffins before baking, about 2-3 each).
- Divide batter evenly into a 12-muffin tin. Bake for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Meanwhile, make the glaze: combine powdered sugar, tahini (affiliate), and half & half (or milk) in a small dish and use a fork to stir until smooth.
- Once muffins are done, transfer to a cooling rack or plate and spoon glaze over the top before serving.
Notes
- Tossing the blueberries in flour ensures you won’t end up with blue batter (especially if using frozen when the juices tend to transfer)
- Make sure you aren’t using pumpkin pie mix, which is sweetened. You’ll want to look for pure canned pumpkin and fortunately most grocery stores carry it now.
- Baking times may vary based on location or the muffin pan you use. I recommend you start checking them around the 20 minute mark just in case!
