I was directed to another blog, by a blog follower, which has a different type of blueberry oatmeal muffin recipe. Thank you by the way.
I have to admit, I did not follow the recipe entirely. I switched
out white whole wheat flour for Einkorn all purpose, I used ground organic old fashioned oats (not quick oats), and used the entire 2 whole eggs. I mean, I could have saved the yolk for another use, but since my layers are fed organic grain (and other goodies), I tossed in the entire egg. I also used organic whole milk (what I had on hand, as I do not buy skim, almond or other type). Oh, and I used frozen blueberries and added cinnamon and nutmeg. I baked them in muffin liners vs. using spray oil. The batter was very runny and it filled the liners to the very top of each.
The taste? Moist and delicious. Even though I tossed the blueberries in the flour mixture first, they still went right to the bottom. Even so, my family devoured them. I caught one daughter moaning as she was eating a muffin.
Next time I make them, I'm adding more cinnamon and nutmeg. Now I need to chalk out baking time for other recipes to try.
Blueberries. Speaking of blueberries, we could not find them by the 10# box last year. Our produce stands (several of them) have closed (strangely). So, with that said, I have started emailing places where they are grown in MI, and hope to find a location and plan ahead. It may require a road trip, unless they can tell me if any are trucked to our neck of the woods. We are unable to grow blueberries here (limestone). We tried 3 years in a row.
