Light muffins or basic recipe for low-calorie versions. Makes 6 muffins

Mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and vanilla) together in a bowl. In another bowl, mix the egg, oil, sugar, and yogurt well with a spoon. Now add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix briefly but thoroughly, leaving no lumps of flour. Don’t let the batter rest for too long; divide the batter between 6 muffin cups and bake in a preheated oven for 10 minutes at 180°C and another 15 minutes at 160°C. Variations: If 50g of sugar isn’t sweet enough for you, you can add a teaspoon of sweetener (calorie-neutral), a tablespoon of jam/marmalade (approx. +10 kcal per muffin), or a tablespoon of honey (approx. +15 kcal per muffin). Additional spices such as cloves, chili, ginger, etc. give the muffins plenty of flavor and are calorie-neutral. For chocolate muffins, add a heaped tablespoon of cocoa powder to the dry ingredients (approximately +15 kcal per muffin). Chopped fruit (drain well) is virtually calorie-neutral, healthy, and adds extra flavor and volume to the muffins.
