🍳 Instructions
Prepare the Batter
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
- Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
- Mix Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, oil, vanilla extract, and honey (if using).
- Combine Wet and Dry:
- Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Add the Blueberries
- Fold in Blueberries:
- Gently fold the blueberries into the batter, being careful not to crush them.
Bake the Muffins
- Fill the Muffin Cups:
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
- Bake:
- Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Cool:
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
💡 Tips and Variations
- 🌿 Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free flour and certified gluten-free oats.
- 🥥 Coconut Twist: Add 1/4 cup shredded coconut to the batter for extra flavor.
- 🍋 Zesty Addition: Add 1 tsp of lemon zest for a fresh and tangy note.
