Gather These Items

1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 cup monk fruit (or other sweetener)
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 tbsp butter
11 oz Greek yogurt
1 cup blueberries
1/2 cup powdered monk fruit (for glaze)

Feel free to swap monk fruit with your preferred sweetener or use frozen blueberries if fresh ones aren’t available.

Directions to Follow
