One of the staples that we buy every week is yogurt. We love all types of yogurt but especially love greek yogurt. My son (he’s 3 years old) LOVES his yogurt and pretty much every morning he has yogurt. At any given time, you will find our fridge stocked with lots of flavors of Yoplait Greek 100 yogurt. We will eat it right from the container, add it to smoothies and even bake with it! 
During Florida’s hot summer, we typically eat yogurt right from the carton or add it to yummy smoothies. Now that it is fall and the weather is finally getting cooler, I like to run the oven more and I love to add yogurt to recipes like this Oatmeal Greek Yogurt Muffin recipe! This fall, I am loving baking breads and muffins and I’m particularly loving any breads or muffins that have oats in them. If you have never tried baking with Yoplait Greek 100 yogurt, you must try it! It adds a rich creaminess to your recipe and I also love the fact that it adds protein to your recipe! 
This recipe calls for one cup of Yoplait Greek Yogurt. I didn’t have the large 32 oz carton of yogurt, but instead had small cups of yogurt that I had bought at Walmart. Walmart has this yogurt priced at $1.00 each. While normally I would have used vanilla flavored or plain yogurt, I decided to use Banana Caramel Yoplait Greek 100 yogurt. I thought the banana and caramel flavors would combine perfectly with the oats in the muffins. (I was right! Each bite of muffin has light tastes of banana and caramel!) 
With this recipe, you will need three different mixing bowls of ingredients (dry muffin ingredients, wet muffin ingredients and the streusel topping) 
Once your oven is preheated to 350, place your muffin tin in the oven and bake for 15 – 18 minutes (I needed the full 18 minutes for my muffins to cook completely.) 
These muffins are OH SO GOOD. You know how some recipes call for you to let your muffins cool completely before eating? I recommend you eat right away! Let your muffin cool a little and then dive in. It is SO good.

Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
