I love this recipe because it’s a muffin recipe I can always whip up without going to the store.  It’s made of simple ingredients that you most likely already have in your pantry and fridge. Besides your regular baking supplies, you’ll need Greek yogurt, butter, milk, egg and strawberry jam.

How to make Low Fat Strawberry Cinnamon Muffins:

Mix the batter.  Put half of the batter in the muffin cups.  Then top with a little bit of all-fruit strawberry jam.  

Add the remaining batter on top of the jam, and then sprinkle a small amount of cinnamon/sugar on top.

What makes these muffins lighter than the average muffin?

This is not your typical, decadent muffin recipe that tastes like cake. It’s lighter for sure. There’s only 1/2 cup of sugar and 1/4 cup butter in the whole recipe. The addition of Greek yogurt helps keep them moist. And a spoonful of strawberry jam in the middles of the muffins is what provides the burst of flavor in the muffins.

Weight Watchers Freestyle Program:

This is a muffin that is Weight Watchers friendly.  If you’re following the Freestyle program, one muffin will count for 6 WW Freestyle points.  If you’re not on the WW program, then you can just plan to enjoy a lighter-style muffin.
