Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar substitute (baking blend, such as erythritol or stevia)
• 0.75 cups Low-fat plain Greek yogurt
• 0.5 cups Freshly squeezed orange juice
• 0.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 tablespoons Orange zest
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0 N/A Cooking spray or muffin liners

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray or line it with muffin liners.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar substitute. Stir well to combine.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, orange juice, almond milk, orange zest, egg, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Evenly divide the batter among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.

Step 6

Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
