Introduction

These healthy baked blueberry Greek yogurt fritters are a delightful twist on a classic treat. Light, fluffy, and naturally sweetened, they make a perfect breakfast or snack. The glaze adds a lovely fruity finish that’s hard to resist.

A wire basket lined with white parchment paper holds about a dozen small, round blueberry doughnut holes, each coated lightly with a shiny white glaze. The doughnut holes have a golden-brown base with purple blueberry spots showing through, creating a speckled texture on their surface. Around the basket, fresh blueberries are scattered across a white marbled surface, adding deep blue accents. A white cloth is laid gently to one side of the basket, and in the top right corner, a white container is filled with more fresh blueberries. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 cup monk fruit sweetener
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 tbsp butter
11 oz Greek yogurt
1 cup blueberries
1/2 cup powdered monk fruit sweetener (for glaze)
Fresh blueberries (for glaze)
1/8 tsp vanilla extract (for glaze)
1/4 cup almond milk (for glaze)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 24-count mini muffin tin, preferably silicone for easy removal.
Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, monk fruit sweetener, baking powder, and salt. Add the egg, melted butter, vanilla extract, and Greek yogurt, then mix until just combined.
Step 3: Gently fold in the blueberries. Scoop the batter evenly into the muffin tin, allowing some batter to hang over the edges for a rustic fritter look. You can reserve any extra batter to bake additional fritters.
Step 4: Bake the fritters for 15 minutes until set and lightly golden.
Step 5: While baking, prepare the glaze by mixing powdered monk fruit sweetener, smashed blueberries, vanilla extract, and almond milk in a small bowl until smooth.
Step 6: Remove fritters from the oven and dip each one into the glaze. Arrange them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 7: Set your oven to broil. Broil the glazed fritters for 5 minutes, turning halfway through to caramelize both sides.
Step 8: Remove from the oven and drizzle any remaining glaze over the fritters for extra shine and flavor. Serve warm and enjoy!

Tips & Variations

For a dairy-free version, substitute the butter with coconut oil and use dairy-free Greek-style yogurt.
Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or lemon zest to the batter for extra flavor depth.
Use fresh or frozen blueberries depending on the season; just thaw and drain frozen berries before folding them in.

Storage

Store leftover fritters in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in a toaster oven or regular oven at 300°F for 5-7 minutes to maintain their crisp exterior. Avoid microwaving to keep the texture crisp.

How to Serve

A pile of small, round glazed blueberry muffins is arranged on a small silver wire tray lined with white parchment paper. Each muffin has a light golden-brown base visible beneath a shiny, smooth layer of clear glaze that covers the surface unevenly, highlighting the embedded deep purple blueberries that peek through the glaze. Some blueberries burst slightly, adding dark purple patches to the otherwise light beige and shiny tops. The tray is set on a white marbled surface scattered with fresh whole blueberries and a white cloth napkin is placed to the right side, adding softness to the setting. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use regular sugar instead of monk fruit sweetener?

What if I don’t have a mini muffin tin?

You can use a regular muffin tin, but bake for a few extra minutes and adjust the glaze step accordingly to ensure even cooking.

1/2 cup smashed blueberries
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup almond milk

Instructions

Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 24-count mini muffin tin, preferably a silicone one for easy removal of fritters.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, monk fruit sweetener, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.

Notes

Using monk fruit sweetener keeps the fritters low in sugar but you can substitute with your preferred sweetener if desired.
Silicone muffin tins work best for easy removal and maintaining the fritter shape.
Don’t worry about batter spilling over the muffin tin edges; this adds to the authentic fritter look and texture.
Broiling the glazed fritters adds a wonderful caramelized finish, so keep a close eye to prevent burning.
These fritters can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature and make a great breakfast or snack option.
For a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt and butter with coconut oil.
