Easy healthy blueberry muffins
These blueberry muffins blend oat flour, mashed bananas, and whole eggs with a touch of brown sugar and oil to create moist, tender muffins with a gentle sweetness. The use of oat flour and bananas adds a hearty texture and natural flavor, while the blueberries contribute pops of juicy freshness both inside and as a topping. Baking until golden and testing with a skewer ensures a well-cooked crumb, ideal for breakfast or a snack when you want something wholesome yet satisfying.
