Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2 tablespoons Turbinado sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease each cup.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir the mixture until just combined, ensuring not to overmix, as this can make the muffins dense.
Carefully fold the blueberries into the batter using a spatula. If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them to prevent them from bleeding into the batter.
Divide the muffin batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
If desired, sprinkle a small pinch of turbinado sugar on top of each muffin for a slightly crunchy topping.
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the muffins warm, or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. These muffins can also be frozen for longer storage.
