Looking for a healthy breakfast muffin or on-the-go muffin snack for your family? These healthy Oats and Chia Seed Muffins with Blueberries are a must-try!
My family enjoys blueberries as is or in baked treats or desserts.
Remember my unique Blueberry Quick Bread recipe?
Or this comforting Apple Blueberry Crisp?
Or how about this Blueberry Nut Bread recipe?
Well, here’s another healthier recipe that would be perfect for serving during breakfast or popping into your child’s lunchbox.
This low-calorie blueberry muffin uses maple syrup instead of sugar, oats instead of flour, and applesauce instead of butter.
- Old fashioned oats
- Blueberries
- Chia seeds
- Eggs
- Milk
- Applesauce
- Maple syrup
- Baking powder
- Cinnamon powder
Yes, you can! You can serve these cool or warmed in the oven or microwave, with a drizzle of maple syrup or as is.
Do these Blueberry Chia Muffins Freeze Well?
Yes, they do! I would place a few in the refrigerator, the night before serving these for breakfast, so they can thaw in time.
Can I use any other milk besides regular milk?
You can! You can make equal measurement substitutions for either almond milk or coconut milk.
Can I use frozen blueberries in these Blueberry Chia Muffins?
You may, but I prefer using fresh blueberries only because I find the purplish blue coloring starts to spread in the batter when the blueberries thaw.
Can I use this batter to make this Blueberry Oats Chia Bread instead?
Yes! The only difference will be a longer baking time. I like using these mini loaf pans
to share loaves with friends, or if you prefer larger loaves, this loaf pan
works great.
Any secrets to making fluffy muffins?
Shhhh! Yes!
Never overmix your batter. Mix it till it’s just combined.
And combine the ingredients by hand and not with a stand mixer or hand mixer.
You will see the difference!
