HEALTHY BLUEBERRY-CARROT MUFFINS
We weren't afraid to include oil in these healthy fruit-and-veggie muffins. We used coconut oil, which contains high levels of lauric acid, a saturated fat that has been shown to raise levels of good (HDL) cholesterol. It also adds richness and tenderness, meaning that the recipe is still delicious even with less sweetener.

Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners and spay the liners lightly with cooking spray.
- Reserve 1/2 cup of the blueberries for garnish. Place the remaining blueberries in a large bowl and lightly crush them with the back of a fork (crushing keeps them from sinking to the bottom of the muffin batter during baking). Add the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt to the blueberries and stir to combine. Whisk together the milk, oil, brown sugar, carrots, eggs, lemon zest and vanilla in another bowl, whisking until no clumps of brown sugar remain. Fold the milk mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (don't worry if there are a few lumps).
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Press the reserved blueberries into the tops of the muffins. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the tops of the muffins with the turbinado sugar. Rotate the pan and continue to bake until the muffins are golden and a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean, 20 to 24 minutes. Cool the muffins in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer the muffins to a rack to cool completely.

HEALTHY BLUEBERRY OATMEAL MUFFINS
Mmmmm...yummy breakfast or snack that has texture, flavor, and a healthy kick. A big thanks to Aunt Carolyn for the original recipe I modified this one from. These are the exact ingredients I used, thanks to a wonderful local bulk foods store. If you need to use more typical ingredients, I've tried to note potential alternatives. Don't omit the little bit of oil, though - it will dry them out.

Steps:
- 1. Place the rack in the top third of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 F, line 18 muffin tins with paper liner and spray with Pam.
- 2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and orange zest. Add the fresh blueberries and toss gently to coat the blueberries in flour. This will help keep the blueberries suspended in the batter versus falling to bottom.
- 3. In a mixing bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then whisk in the buttermilk, brown sugar, canola oil, orange juice, and vanilla. Don't be concerned if the mixture looks curdled and lumpy.
- 4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until most of the flour is incorporated. The mixture can be slightly lumpy, don't over-mix. Divide the batter among the 18 prepared muffin cups. Bake 14-15 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown around the edges.
Tips:
- Choose ripe blueberries: Using ripe blueberries will ensure that your muffins are bursting with flavor. Look for berries that are plump and deep blue in color.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use parchment paper or muffin liners: This will help prevent the muffins from sticking to the muffin tin.
- Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full: This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
- Bake the muffins at a high temperature for a short period of time: This will help create a crispy crust and a tender interior.
- Let the muffins cool before serving: This will help them to set and hold their shape.
Conclusion:
These healthy blueberry muffins are a delicious and nutritious snack or breakfast option. They are packed with blueberries, which are a good source of antioxidants and fiber. The muffins are also low in sugar and fat, making them a healthier choice than traditional muffins. With just a few simple ingredients and a few minutes of prep time, you can enjoy these delicious and healthy muffins.
