Blueberry Cheesecake Muffins image

These muffins won 2nd place in a King Arthur Flour contest. I've been making them since my kids were babies and have brought them to many functions. The yogurt makes them fluffy and the almond flavoring gives them a special bakery flavor. You can substitute pureed cottage cheese for the ricotta.

These muffins are a great way to get kids to eat their fruit. My kids love the blueberry flavor, and they don't even realize they're eating cheesecake.

I love these muffins! They're so moist and flavorful. I've even frozen them, and they still taste great.

These muffins are the perfect make-ahead breakfast. I make a batch on the weekend, and then I have them all week long.

I made these muffins gluten-free by using gluten-free flour, and they turned out great! They were just as delicious as the regular muffins.

These muffins were a little dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more butter or oil next time.

I've made these muffins with different berries, and they always turn out great. They're a great way to use up fresh berries.

These muffins were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, and the muffins came out perfectly. They were light and fluffy, with a delicious blueberry flavor. The cheesecake filling was rich and creamy, and it paired perfectly with the muffin.

These muffins were a hit with my family! The blueberry and cheesecake flavors were perfectly balanced, and the muffins were moist and fluffy. I will definitely be making these again.
