Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Main Ingredient

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it. Rinse the blueberries and dry them gently to avoid excess moisture.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir together to evenly distribute all the leavening agents and grains.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the egg with Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  4. Bring Wet and Dry Together: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, and gently fold together until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep your muffins tender.
  5. Fold in Blueberries: Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, making sure they’re evenly distributed but not crushed to prevent purple streaks.
  6. Fill Muffin Tin and Bake: Divide the batter evenly among your muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and muffins turn golden.
  7. Cool and Enjoy: Let the muffins cool slightly before removing from the tin for best texture and flavor; enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Use fresh blueberries for better texture and flavor.
  • Don’t overmix the batter to avoid dense muffins.
  • Measure flour correctly by spooning into the cup and leveling off.
  • Add a touch of lemon zest to brighten flavor and complement blueberries.
  • Test for doneness early as oven temperatures vary.
