Ingredients
- 2/3 cup oat flour
- 1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 cup LittleOak Toddler Milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp lemon zest (the yellow part of the lemon peel)
- 3 tbsp applesauce
- 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
Method
- Preheat the Oven: Get an adult to help preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a big bowl, mix together the oat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, lemon zest, and applesauce.
- Combine: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just mixed. Then, fold in the blueberries (this means to carefully mix them in).
- Prepare Muffin Tin: Lightly grease a muffin tin or line it with muffin liners.
- Fill Muffin Cups: Scoop the batter into each muffin cup, filling them about ¾ full.
- Bake: Put the muffin tin in the oven (with adult supervision) and bake for 20-22 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
- Cool and Enjoy: Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before enjoying them!
