Blueberry Buttermilk Mini Muffins

..or normal sized muffins. :) I got this recipe from a kids' book I checked out from the library a few months ago....I didn't write down what book it was...
SOOO GOOD SOO HEALTHY and SOOO EASY, CHEAP to MAKE!

1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour (i use 2/3c white, 2/3c wheat)
2/3 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup sugar ( i use 1/3...it turns out perfect)
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
MIX ABOVE TOGETHER IN A LARGE BOWL

1 1/3 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup canola oil (i need to try applesauce...)
1 egg slightly beaten
1 cup fresh/frozen blueberries
MIX LIQUIDS IN A BOWL (not the blueberries) THEN POUR INTO DRY MIX BOWL

stir just enough to moisten. Add blueberries
BAKE 350 FOR 10-12 MIN

toothpick clean? means time to cool and eat up! :)



*blueberries are obviously good for you
*buttermilk is surprisingly low in fat
*corn meal is packed of good nutrients (the real stuff) and gluten free
*WAAY better than anything packaged and packed of chemicals
*did I mention easy to make!?

I love your blog. The muffins look great. Do you cook healthy a lot? I have never put cornmeal in blueberry muffins, but I will try it.

Do you ever bake chocolate-chip muffins? They are good, too. I love to bake, especially cookies. What is your favorite thing to cook? I hate to clean up though. My husband does that for me. I am blessed that way.

Say, 'Yes' said...

Janet- I try my best to cook healthy! I've never tried chocolate-chip muffins! mmm My favorite cookie is oatmeal raisen. I like Peanut butter cookies too, but I can't make them because then I'll eat them all and get sick... :( LoL

You n' me both girl! I HATE clean-up! :)
