Whole Wheat Blueberry Muffins

Prep time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 20 minutes Makes: 12 muffins

Ingredients
1½ cups whole-wheat flour
½ cup sugar
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 egg, slightly beaten
⅓ cup vegetable oil
⅓ cup nonfat or 1% milk
½ cup applesauce
1 to 2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)
Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease the bottom
of 12 muffin cups.
Mix the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder in a large
bowl.
In a separate bowl, blend the beaten egg, oil, milk and
applesauce until smooth.
Stir the liquids into the dry ingredients until just
moistened. Lightly stir in the blueberries.
Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full.
Bake about 20 minutes, or until the muffin tops are
golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center of the
muffin should come out moist but without batter

Variations
✪To bake as bread, use an 8- or
9-inch bread pan and bake at 350
degrees F for 45 to 50 minutes.
✪No whole-wheat flour? Replace
with all-purpose flour.
✪Replace the blueberries with
another fruit. Try diced apples
with 1 teaspoon cinnamon, fresh
or frozen cranberries with 1½
teaspoon orange zest, or diced
bananas.

Tip for Pouring Batter
A gravy ladle or large liquid measuring
cup are great tools for pouring muffin
batter into tins and pancake batter
onto the skillet.
