Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups (135g) rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup (240ml) milk (whole, skim, almond, or oat milk)
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (150g) fresh or frozen blueberries
  • Optional: handful of chopped walnuts or pecans
  • Optional: 1 tbsp chia seeds

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease your muffin tin or line with paper liners to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Whisk together to evenly distribute.
  3. In another bowl, beat eggs with milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the blueberries gently, taking care not to crush them.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among 12 muffin cups, filling about 3/4 full.
  7. Bake for 25-28 minutes until tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean.
  8. Let the cups cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use rolled oats, not instant or steel-cut oats, for best texture. Room temperature eggs and milk help the batter mix evenly. Do not overmix to avoid tough cups. Frozen blueberries can be used straight from the freezer without thawing. Grease muffin tin well or use liners to prevent sticking. Tent with foil if edges brown too fast. Store in airtight container in fridge up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
