Blueberry Banana Oat Muffins

created by Snacking Squirrel

2 cups whole wheat pastry flour

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup brown sugar

2 large eggs  

3 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/3 cup apple sauce

1/4 cup buttermilk

3 medium ripe banana

1 cup blueberries

Directions:

A. Preheat oven to 400F

B. In a bowl, beat eggs vigorously before mashing in your bananas. Then stir in the brown sugar until the lumps disappear. Add the applesauce and buttermilk before setting the bowl aside

C. In a larger bowl, add in the rest of your ingredients (all the dry) except for the blueberries which we'll add at the end. Stir the dry ingredients until evenly mixed

D. Pour the wet batter into the dry batter and lightly fold together. Do not over stir- common mistake! Over mixing de-fluffs the muffs! ... usually 12-15 stirs with the spatula is good enough

E. Just before you're done, add in the blueberries. Scoop into muffin pan. Top with oats

F. Bake @ 380F for 20-25 minutes

A few of you asked if I create my own recipes and the answer is YES!

Unless I specify that it's been adapted, it's 100% my own, baked with love :)
