Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour sifted
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries washed and drained

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Muffin tin
  • Paper liners
  • Cooling rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sifted flour, oats, baking powder, salt, and sugar until evenly combined. This creates a uniform dry mixture.
    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  3. In a separate medium bowl, combine the eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract, whisking until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy. The eggs should be fully blended into the oil.
    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
  5. Fold in the blueberries carefully to distribute them evenly without breaking the berries or deflating the batter. Notice the berries becoming visible throughout the mixture.
    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Place the muffin tray in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes

Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze for longer storage. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
