Back-to-School Apple Blueberry Oat Muffins

2 cups of rolled oats
1 1/4 cups of whole wheat flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup melted butter
1/3 cup applesauce
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 tbsp honey
1 cup peeled, diced Granny Smith apples
2/3 cups fresh blueberries


In a large bowl combine oats, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a smaller bowl mix together the buttermilk, melted butter, applesauce, vanilla, egg, and honey. Add to flour mixture and stir just until combined. Gently fold in diced apples and blueberries.


Fill lined (or unlined) muffin cups nearly full and bake in a 375 degree oven for 18-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
