Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins (Eggless)

By: Jigna
These Eggless Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins are soft, moist, and lightly sweetened, made with soaked rolled oats and fresh blueberries. Starting the bake at a higher temperature helps create tall, bakery-style muffin tops, while keeping the crumb tender and fluffy.

Cuisine: World
Diet: Eggless, Vegetarian

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup (90g) rolled oats
  • 1 cup (240ml) buttermilk
  • 1¼ cups (150g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoon (85g) unsalted butter melted
  • ½ cups (100g) cane sugar or granulated sugar
  • 1 cup (140g) fresh blueberries
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Combine oats and buttermilk in a bowl or measuring cup, stir well, and let stand for 15-20 minutes. This step is crucial as it allows the oats to absorb the milk, making them softer and more flavorful in the final muffins.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line the muffin pan with paper liners and lightly grease with non-stick oil spray. Set it aside.
  • Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl and whisk until well combined. Fold blueberries into the flour mixture and gently mix well. Set aside.
  • Combine melted butter, sugar, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Whisk until well combined.
  • Add oat mixture and mix until everything is well combined.
  • Mix the flour mixture in 2-3 parts until everything is combined. Do not overmix.
  • Spoon the batter into the muffin pan, filling each tin all the way to the top. Use a cookie or ice cream scoop for easy and even distribution.
  • If desired, top the muffin batter with a cane or coarse sugar. Bake for 5 minutes at 425°F (220°C), and then, while keeping the muffins in the oven, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F(180°C).
  • Continue baking for 12-14 minutes or until the toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then, transfer them onto a cooling rack and let them cool completely before serving.

Serving and Storing Suggestions

  • Blueberry oatmeal muffins are perfect for breakfast. They taste delicious with some butter spread on them.
  • We can also have it as a snack or a dessert post-dinner.
  • These muffins stay at room temperature for up to 2 days. Cover your leftovers tightly and place them in the fridge for 4-5 days.

Notes

  1. Buttermilk: Buttermilk makes the muffins extra tender and moist. You can either use a store-bought buttermilk or make a buttermilk substitute.
  2. Buttermilk Substitute: If you do not have a store-bought buttermilk, make the substitute at home. Add a tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice to a cup of milk, stir, and let it stand for 5 minutes. Your buttermilk substitute is ready to use!
