  9. 1/2 cup Dried Wild Blueberries, by Wyman's of Maine

    Gently fold in the blueberries. Line muffin pan with paper cups and fill each cup about 3/4 full. Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Options

Add 1/4 cup of walnuts for some omega-3 and fatty acids and protein, which will be a perfect treat for breakfast.  Use gluten-free baking mix instead of flour to make this recipe gluten-free.  Replace cow's milk with unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk for those with dairy sensitivities.  If you have coconut oil, try that instead of canola oil for coconut blueberry muffins!  Add cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice for extra nutrients and a little spice!
