Print Products and services By Mayo Clinic Staff
Dietitian s tip
When baking, use Greek yogurt to reduce or replace shortening, oil or butter. This cuts fat and makes muffins extra moist and tender.

Ingredients
8 ounces fat-free plain Greek yogurt 2 eggs 1/4 cup canola oil 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/4 cup brown sugar 2 tablespoons unsweetened orange juice concentrate 2 tablespoons orange zest 2 teaspoons vanilla 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour 1/4 cup flaxseed meal 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/8 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries

Heat the oven to 350 F. Lightly grease muffin tins or place a muffin cup liner in each tin. In a mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, eggs, oil, sugars, orange juice concentrate, orange zest and vanilla.
