Ive been really into creating “healthy” sweets lately. Sweets that you can eat without all the sugars and butter! And these muffins don’t need all that butter and sugar muffins normally have. These muffins are moist, soft and flavorful without all of that. Best part are that these healthy sweets are great for toddler plates too!
These mini muffins are made with whole wheat flour and oats instead of white flour, olive oil instead of butter and maple syrup instead of sugar. And the yogurt is the star of the recipe, makes the muffin super moist and gives it a boost in protein!

My 11 month old baby LOVES these mini muffins. I was thinking of her when making this recipe, I wanted a baked good for her to eat that was also good for her.
You can serve these to your babe starting at 7 months +!
