Cooking time: 15–17 minutes

Yield: 12 servings

Nonstick cooking spray

1 cup oat-bran flour

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup quick oats

1 cup frozen blueberries, unsweetened

1 cup lowfat milk

1 egg plus 1 egg white, lightly beaten

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F, and spray a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray (or you can use paper muffin liners).

2. In a large bowl, combine the oat-bran flour, all-purpose flour, quick oats, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and sugar, and mix with a spoon. Add the frozen blueberries, and mix well.

3. In a medium bowl, combine the milk, eggs, vanilla, and oil, and blend well with a spoon.

4. Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture, and stir until the dry ingredients are moist.

5. Fill the cups of the muffin pan 3/4 full, and bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
