Ingredients for Berry Oatmeal Muffins

  • Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour + 1 tablespoon for blueberries
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Fat Free Raspberry Yogurt
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • Vanilla Extract

How to Make Berry Oatmeal Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a small bowl, combine 1 1/2 tablespoons rolled oats and 1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar. Set aside.
  3. In another small bowl, gently toss 1 cup blueberries with 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour. Set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups rolled oats, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup plain yogurt, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) melted unsalted butter, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Gently fold in the floured blueberries.
  8. Fill muffin cups almost to the top.
  9. Sprinkle the reserved oat and brown sugar mixture evenly over the muffins.
  10. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
