    I picked this recipe despite not having cake flour. Took advise of another review in using AP flour and corn starch. Only had half cup of yogurt so used a very ripe banana smashed to make up difference. They came out awesome. Made plenty so I froze some instead of letting them go bad. Can't wait to see if they are just as good out of the freezer! Different that most but I loved something other than the usual!

    These muffins are beyond good. The recipe is easily to follow. The yogurt makes them very moist. The vegetable oil makes the outside a little crunchy. I am not a blueberry fan. My neighbor brought over blueberries and I didn’t know what to do with all of them. I tasted the muffins right out of the oven. They were so good that I ate another one. After they cooled I ate another one. Now I am looking for a neighbor so that I can share these tasty muffins with!

    I disagree with all the nay-sayers who are giving this recipe a low rating. I followed it exactly and I have delicious, moist muffins. I did use vanilla yogurt since it didn't specify.
