- 1-½ cups blueberries (plus extra for topping)
- 1 cup rolled oats (plus extra for topping)
- 6 Tablespoons butter, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 400°F and grease or line a muffin tin.
Mash bananas in a bowl with a fork until there are no more lumps.
Add softened butter, vanilla, and egg, and mash it all together again.
In a separate bowl, mix together the dry ingredients of oats, flour, both sugars, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon.
Add wet to dry ingredients and stir just until all ingredients are combined.
Finally, gently fold in the blueberries.
Fill each muffin cup with batter and top with extra oats and berries, if desired.
Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let cool on a cooling rack for a few minutes before enjoying.

Expert Tips
- Choosing ripe bananas and blueberries will result in the freshest, sweetest muffins.
- If using frozen berries, you can toss them right into the batter, no defrosting necessary!
- Have your eggs and butter ready at room temperature. This will help to create a smoother batter (as opposed to cold ingredients).
- No fancy equipment needed for this recipe! For tender muffins, a gentle hand stirring the batter is better. Don't overmix.
