Whole Grain Blueberry Muffins
"I am always looking for ways to add fiber to our diet. These muffins originally called for 1/2 white and 1/2 whole wheat flour. I made some adjustments and the end result were moist, fruit filled muffins. The recipe calls for cinnamon; however, for a true taste delight add 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of my Baking Spice Blend Mix Recipe #145505."

posted photo is for blueberry cornmeal muffins....excellent -
I have made this recipe my personal project...I am on a "clean eating" diet and these muffins have really helped me out. They were great as is, but I have tried to add to them by adding 1/4 cup flax seed ground in coffee grinder, 1/2 cup of unsweetened applesauce to keep them moist, 30 drops of Stevia natural sweetner, and nuts of your choice. They are a very healthy alternative to normal breads. Highly recommended! -
These were quite tasty, although I think they need a bit more spice in them. I added 1/2 teaspoon salt (I never bake without salt) and 1 teaspoon almond extract. And I left the oats whole, becuase I like what oats do to the texture of breads. I will definitely make these again. -
I enjoyed the muffins, but my family thought they were a little blan. I used honey instead of molasses. If I make then again I will try using the Baking Spice Blend Mix that was suggested as an alternative to the cinnamon. Thanks for sharing. -
Very good muffins. I used whole grain graham flour instead. They were actually done in 20 minutes instead of 25. I will make these again.

Delicious and healthy and a great way to use blueberries along with a great way to use up the last of the buttermilk. I made a few minor changes to the recipe by not using oat bran (couldn't find it) and using oat flour in its place. I also skipped the cinnamon (out of) and instead of the molasses (out of) used honey in its place. I sprinkled nutmeg and sugar over the tops of the muffins -- and got 15 muffins out of the recipe--the three of us ate every one! A great breakfast for Father's Day or any summer Sunday! Thanks for sharing!

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.
Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com.
Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net.
Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
