Amazing tasting, healthy wholesome Blueberry Bran Muffins are made with oat bran and loaded with blueberries.
Blueberry Bran Muffins are perfect for breakfast on the go or anytime snack. These healthy muffins are quick and easy to make and freeze great. I used oat bran in this recipe but you can also use wheat bran. Both pack a great punch of nutrition that is rich in dietary fibre and vitamins. Fresh ripe blueberries make them even healthier with a tasty boost of antioxidants.
A moist and delicious muffin loaded with fresh blueberries! When preparing the batter don’t over-mix, or you will have tough and dry muffins. Batter should be lumpy and thick. I only use my mixer to blend up the wet ingredients, then switch to hand mixing to blend everything together.
