Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ¾ cup Greek yogurt (Skyr or blended cottage cheese work too)
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup maple syrup

Add-ins

  • ⅓ cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 350℉ (175℃) and spray a loaf pan lightly with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Set aside while you prepare the batter.
  2. Mix dry and wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt. Add the Greek yogurt, egg, and maple syrup. Stir all ingredients thoroughly, scraping down the sides of the bowl to ensure the batter is smooth and well blended.
  3. Transfer batter and add berries: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top gently. Evenly distribute the mixed berries over the top of the batter for a colorful, fruity finish.
  4. Bake the buns: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, indicating the buns are fully cooked.
  5. Serve: Remove the buns from the oven and let them cool slightly. Drizzle additional maple syrup on top if desired, then serve warm for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • You can substitute Greek yogurt with Skyr or blended cottage cheese for similar texture and protein content.
  • Using frozen berries is fine, but do not thaw them completely to avoid bleeding their color into the batter.
  • This recipe works well as a quick breakfast or a protein-rich snack.
  • For a vegan version, substitute the egg with a flax egg and use a plant-based yogurt, though texture may vary.
  • Make sure not to overmix the batter to keep the buns tender.
