Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 6-cup muffin pan or line with paper cupcake liners.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, Greek yogurt, and granulated sugar. Mix until smooth.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the wet ingredients and whisk until fully combined.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Add the fresh blueberries into the batter and gently fold them in to distribute evenly.
Divide the batter evenly among the six prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the cakes cool for 5 minutes in the pan. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
