Because these One-Bowl Blueberry Lemon Mini Muffins are tiny, they’re perfect as a snack. And clean up is a breeze!
Hi, I’m Amy. And I’m a snacker. Amen. (Also? I almost wrote slacker. Which, on occasion, is also the case.)
Since I get up before 5am, I pretty much want lunch by 10. But if I do that, I want dinner by 2. Ya, that doesn’t really work. So, I snack.
But instead of shoveling cookies into my face all day, I’ve learned to always have healthier options on hand. Nuts, vegetables, hummus, etc. And fruit. Like blueberries. Inside muffins. Wait. What?
These mini muffins are my way of compromising between healthy and indulgent. And they are perfect for when the kids get home from school, who are always ravenous. Because they actually do eat lunch at 10, which is crazy!
I teamed up with General Mills and my local Safeway today, where you can always find snacks that fit into your day. Be Snacksational with Nature Valley™ granola bars, Chex Mix™, Annie’s® crackers, or some Lemon Burst Yoplait® original yogurt and these mini muffins!

You know I’m in love with these!!! Lemon, muffins, blueberries = love!
I’m still coming down off of a 20-year long fear of blueberries after my jokester father told me blueberries were just blue chocolate chips in the muffins. I think I’m ready to leap into the world of blueberries…this looks like the perfect way to start!
