Quick tip: If you are using frozen blueberries when baking, toss them with about one
tablespoon of flour before mixing them into the batter. This stops them
from leaking blue into the rest of the muffin.

Ingredients:

  • 1 and 1/4c. oats (quick cooking)
  • 1/2c. all-purpose flour (Plus 1 tbl)
  • 1/2c. whole-wheat flour
  • 1/3c. sugar (I like using Splenda instead)
  • 1/4c. brown sugar, unpacked
  • 1 tbl. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1c. fat-free milk
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla
  • 2/3c. frozen wild blueberries (use only 1/3 cup if they are not wild -which means small-) rinsed and drained
  • 2/3c. fresh raspberries, cut in half
  • Cooking spray

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Mix together the oats, flour, sugars, baking powder, and salt together in a medium-sized bowl.
  3. In a smaller bowl, combine the egg, milk, and vanilla.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and stir together just until moist (over-mixing can cause unpleasant texture).
  5. Mix the frozen blueberries with 1 tbl. flour until they
    are coated. Add in raspberries. Fold berries gently into the batter, making sure they are evenly distributed
  6. Spray a 6-cup muffin pan with cooking spray, and fill each muffin cup about 2/3 of the way full with batter (Tip:
    I like to use a ice cream scooper to fill mine. Just spray the scooper
    with cooking spray before hand, and the batter will slide out easily).
    Each muffin will have about 1/2c. plus some batter.
  7. Place the muffins in the oven and cook for about 20-25 minutes: this changes depending on where you live and such, so make sure to keep an eye on them! (Tip:
    To test if they are done, either stick a toothpick in and see if it
    comes out clean, or touch the top of the muffin and if it springs back
    it is ready
    ).

If making normal-sized muffins, cut the calorie amount per muffin in half and cook at 425 degrees for about 20 minutes.
