blueberries and banana make good muffins.

as you know we're going away soon on our holidays. so i'm not grocery shopping... because i'm not lugging around a ton of food, and i don't want stuff to go off.. it makes sense. but it also means, that i didn't realize i was running out.. and when my little man didn't want cereal this morning, i had to think fast.

our fruit was ripening faster, so baking was in order.
i don't even know where i got this recipe. i have a habit of writing recipes down (i have a lot actually) and it's neat to leaf through the index cards to see what i can find. and i'm sure i've had this one on hand for at least a decade.



i thought i'd share it with you today... since they're super yummy and all...

blueberry banana oat muffins
(makes 12)

mix together:
1 cup  ww.flour
1 cup rolled oats
1/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda 

in a seperate bowl, blend:
1 egg, beaten
1 cup mashed banana (i used 3... they had to be used up)
2 tbsp melted butter

add the banana mixture to the flour mixture. then fold in 1 cup blueberries. you could add apples too.
note: you may also replace applesauce for the banana and raisins for blueberries (just for a variation)

bake in a greased muffin tin at 400 degrees for 15 min. or until toothpick comes out clean.

they're yummy. my 4 year old tester gave me the thumbs up.

what are you baking today? xo

  1. Hi Rebecca!
    We were planning on making banana loaf today...then I saw your post, so we decided to put blueberries in it too! It just came out of the oven and it smells so good :)
