Blueberry Bran Muffins

These delectable muffins are a delightful combination of the rich taste of bran and the sweet juiciness of blueberries. They’re ideal for busy mornings or an afternoon treat with your favorite beverage. Plus, they are simple to prepare!

Ingredients

1 cup wheat bran
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners, or grease it well.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the wheat bran and buttermilk. Let this mixture sit for about 10-15 minutes so the bran can soften.
After the bran has soaked, add the brown sugar, egg, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract to the mixture. Stir until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy your freshly baked blueberry bran muffins with a cup of coffee or tea! These muffins are not only delicious but also provide a wonderful source of fiber and nutrients to keep you energized throughout the day.
