Greek Muffins

Lalaloula's Note:

This recipe comes from Cora Wetzstein's book „Muffins for fruity moments“. It is very easy and quick to make and the muffins come out moist and tasty. You could use all sorts of different yogurts, nuts and fruits in this recipe, so feel free to experiment.

Soooooo Gooood! I don't like overly sweet things and this hit the spot! I did add the cinnamon and went with half regular flour half whole wheat flour....amazing. I will be doing these again, they're now part of my cooking arsenal! Thank you!!

Another tasty recipe from Loula! This was very easy to make and I made 24 mini muffins for a party that I'm going to tonight. I might serve some preserves with it to dip into! Made for Went To The Market tag game. Thanks Lalaloula! :)
