How to make healthy blueberry muffins?

1. Homework. Preheat oven to 180C or 350F. Grease a 12-unit muffin tin and reserve.

3. Combine. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in the blueberries.
4. Bake. Transfer muffin batter to 12 count muffin pan and bake for 20-22 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of muffin comes out clean.

Tips to make the best recipe.

• Do not over mix the batter. Mixing too much makes the muffins tough, so always mix everything until just incorporated.
• Fold in the blueberries gently. This will help prevent them from breaking down and turning the batter purple.
• Don’t overbake the muffins. Bake the muffins until golden brown and a toothpick comes out almost clean. Remember, bagels continue to bake as they cool.
• Use fresh blueberries. While frozen blueberries work, fresh ones are always better and will produce the most perfectly textured muffins every time.
