In my house, having a delicious snack is a must, so I like to have a basket of muffins as a quick snack to grab. I love making these in big batches to help carry me through the rest of the week. They have a nice boost of protein in them, and they help curb that sweet tooth that we sometimes have.

They always come out fluffy and delicious. They are made with oat flour, which can be made at home or purchased ready-made.

Ingredients Needed

• Oat flour I make my own oat flour by blending rolled oats in my food processor, but you can use store-bought too.
• Cinnamon Blueberries and cinnamon are a great combination. You barely notice the cinnamon, but it’s a great additional flavor.
• Eggs The eggs will help the dry ingredients bind together and create a nice, fluffy muffin.
• Blueberries I use frozen, but fresh will work well too. I use frozen, but fresh will work well too.
• Oil In this recipe, I use vegetable oil, but you can use 1/3 cup of coconut oil.
• Maple syrup This is a great natural sweetener.
• Baking powder and baking will help the muffins rise and bake properly.
• Vanilla Pure vanilla has the best flavor, but any vanilla will work.
• Almond milk Regular milk, almond milk, or oat milk will all work.

How to make Oat Flour Blueberry Muffins

• Combine oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, baking soda, blueberries, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, combine the oil, eggs, vanilla, almond milk, and maple syrup. Fold wet and dry ingredients together gently until just combined.
• Bake Line muffin pans with cupcake liners or silicone liners, then spoon batter into the tin and place a few extra blueberries on top. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow cooling for 5 minutes before serving after removing from the oven.
