How To Make blueberry oatmeal muffins

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a standard-sized muffin pan with paper liners.
  • Step 2
    In a large bowl, soak the rolled oats in the milk for 30 minutes or until most of the milk is absorbed.
  • Step 3
    In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Step 4
    Add the brown sugar, vegetable oil, beaten egg, and vanilla extract to the soaked oats. Stir the mixture just until combined.
  • Step 5
    Stir in the flour mixture just until combined. Gently fold in the blueberries.
  • Step 6
    Divide the mixture evenly in the muffin liners. Top each muffin with 2-3 blueberries and a sprinkle of oats.
  • Step 7
    Bake for 5 minutes. Lower the oven to 350 degrees F and bake for 15-17 more minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
