Blueberry Oatmeal Breakfast Mufffins
I tried so many blueberry oatmeal recipes from different sites but it didn't turn out the way I expected since I was using whole wheat flour. The muffins were not that soft and were turning a little dry once cooled. Finally at many trials and errors, I started changing the ingredients a little more to my preference and this recipe yielded a good batch of soft muffins, which is also on the low sugar side. I have used coconut palm sugar here, which is a ideal substitute for brown sugar and still gives the same flavor ass brown sugar.
Ingredients:
Dry Ingredients:
1. Whole wheat flour, 1 cup.
2. Oats, 1/2 cup.
3. Baking powder, 1-1/2 teaspoon.
4. Baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon.
5. Cinnamon powder, 1/2 teaspoon.
6. Salt, 1/2 teaspoon.
7. Blueberries, 1-1/2 cups, mixed with a tablespoon of flour.
Wet Ingredients:
1. Yogurt, 1 cup.
2. Milk, 1/2 cup. We can use any kind of milk here like soy milk or almond milk.
3. Vanilla essence, 1/4 teaspoon.
4. Coconut palm sugar or agave nectar, 2/3 cup. Any other white sugar substitutes do not work so well here since coconut palm sugar or palm sugar gives nice brown color and a good flavor to the muffins.
5. Two more tablespoons of coconut palm sugar for sprinkling over the top of the muffins.
6. Egg, 1.
Preparation:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Whisk all the wet ingredients together until they are fluffy. Mix all the dry ingredients in a separate bowl except the blueberries and add the dry ingredients slowly into the wet ingredient mixture. Mix everything well. Now add the blueberries and mix everything just once. With a ladle, pour the muffins into a greased muffin pan. Sprinkle coconut palm sugar on top of the muffins and bake for 12-14 minutes.
