Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce (or mashed banana)
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (if using frozen, do not thaw)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
    • Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
  2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
    • In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. Combine the Wet Ingredients:
    • In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, honey (or maple syrup), applesauce (or mashed banana), Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Mix the Wet and Dry Ingredients:
    • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Add the Blueberries:
    • Gently fold in the blueberries with a spatula or spoon. If using frozen blueberries, stir them in carefully to avoid turning the batter blue.
  6. Spoon the Batter into Muffin Tin:
    • Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  7. Bake:
    • Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool and Serve:
    • Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Storage: Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to 1 week. They can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
  • Make Them Vegan: Use a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 2 tablespoons water) instead of the egg, and opt for maple syrup instead of honey.
  • Add-ins: Feel free to add a handful of chopped nuts or seeds for added crunch and nutrition.
