Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your very own Blueberry Oatmeal Greek Yogurt Muffins:
1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing or lining a muffin tin with paper liners.
2. Combine Oats and Liquid: In a large bowl, mix the rolled oats, Greek yogurt, milk, honey (or maple syrup), eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir well until the mixture is smooth.
3. Add Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
4. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the muffin batter. If you’re using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them to avoid discoloring the batter.
6. Distribute Batter: Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin. Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full.
7. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
8. Cool Down: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven. Let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Optional Topping: For an added touch, you can sprinkle some oats or a bit of coarse sugar on top of the muffins before baking.
