This is a delicious recipe that adds the nutrition and taste of oat bran to an already wonderful blueberry muffin recipe. These muffins are not just a treat, they are amazingly nutritious too.
Combine oats and buttermilk or sour milk in a bowl. Let stand.
Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and brown sugar in a larger bowl. Stir to mix well.
Add egg and melted butter to oat and milk mixture. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir only until all ingredients are moistened.
Carefully fold in blueberries, stirring only to distribute them evenly through the mixture.
Fill 12 muffin cups 3/4 full and bake at 400°F for 15-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Notes
If using frozen blueberries, make sure they are completely thawed and well drained.
To make sour milk put 1 tablespoon of lemon juice into a 1 cup measure. Fill cup with milk. Let sit for a few minutes to sour while you assemble the rest of the ingredients.
