These muffins are light and fluffy even though they have healthy old-fashioned oats in them! The juicy blueberries burst with flavor and are pillowed in a soft tender muffin. I whipped them up in no time! Super quick and easy breakfast idea, and they freeze great as well.
The secret to these muffins is –
DON’T overmix!
First you’ll blend all of the dry ingredients together and toss the blueberries in. Tossing the blueberries with the dry ingredients keeps the blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the muffins. This way they’ll be evenly dispersed throughout the muffins.
After you beat the wet ingredients together, just pour the wet mixture over the dry mixture and very gently fold them together. It should only take a few turns of the spatula. The batter may still look lumpy but that’s ok. That’s the way you want it for a soft tender muffin rather than a chewy dense muffin.
