These blueberry muffins came from Cooking Light, February 2006, but I made a couple of variations to lighten the sugar and fat load even more. Taste great! Ingredients:
1 2/3 cups oatmeal |
2/3 cup flour |
1/2 cup whole wheat flour |
1/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed |
1/2 cup splenda granular |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 1/2 cups low-fat buttermilk |
1/4 cup prune baby food (or prune puree or other fat replacement product) |
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest |
1/2 cup egg substitute |
2 cups frozen blueberries |
2 tablespoons flour |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°F. 2. Put oatmeal into a food processor to process until resembles course meal. 3. Mix all dry ingredients together well with wire whisk. 4. Make a well in center of dry ingredients. 5. In a separate bowl mix well buttermilk, prune baby food, lemon zest, and egg substitute. 6. Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients stirring slowly until just combined. 7. Mix blueberries and 2 tbs flour together to coat blueberries. 8. Carefully fold blueberries into batter. 9. Spoon batter into a prepared muffin tin (cooking spray or muffin paper). 10. Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes or until cooked. 11. Let cool on wire rack. |
