These healthy and easy muffins are surprisingly moist and delicious! They are whole grain, oat and fruit filled with a touch of honey for sweetness. They are great for breakfast or for a snack. Enjoy!!
Oatmeal Blueberry Honey Muffins
Makes about 12 to 15 muffins
- 1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 1/4 cups rolled oats (not instant)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cinnanmon
- 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 1 cup Unsweetened Applesauce
- 1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
- 2 Tbls Canola Oil
- 1 Tbls Honey
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 3/4 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Spray a 12 cup muffin tin ( you can also use a mini muffin pad for those little hands) with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
In a large bowl whisk together flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and brown sugar. In a medium bowl combine applesauce, buttermilk, honey, sugar, oil and egg and mix well. Make a well in dry ingredients and add applesauce mixture and stir until moist. Fold in blueberries.
Fill muffin cups 2/3 full. I used a ice cream scoop to make sure all cups were filled evenly. Bake for 16 to 18 minutes. Enjoy!
Note: Since these wonderful muffins are natural goodies they stay fresh in a air tight container for about 3 days. So if you don’t think you’ll eat these fast enough store half in the freezer. However, in my house they were gone pretty quickly. You can also store in the refrigerator too.
