Step 2

Mix 1/4 cup of the flour with the blueberries. Set aside. Beat egg white and 1 tablespoon oil lightly in bowl. Stir in milk and melted margarine or oil.
Step 3

In separate bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Sift dry ingredient mixture over egg white mixture. Stir just long enough to moisten flour. The batter will look lumpy. DO NOT OVERMIX. Fold in blueberries. Fill each tin two-thirds full with batter. Bake in preheated oven 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

I made some changes to this recipe and my muffins were absolutely delicious! I used 100% whole wheat flour (I NEVER do half white half wheat; I prefer all whole wheat flour) 1 whole egg instead of egg whites Applesauce instead of oil 1 tablespoon fat free french vanilla yogurt and 2% milk instead of skim. I used frozen wild blueberries but I'm not sure that made much of a difference. At the end before I baked them I threw in some ground flaxseed meal. They are very moist and they taste delish!

I made this twice and wish I had just bought a box mix. Other recipes for muffins are so much better than this one. They were dry and not very sweet. I recomend trying any other recipe for muffins before this one. Read More

Quite good. I changed recipe by using one whole egg added an extra 1/2c milk and brown sugar instead of white. I made the first batch by the original recipe and found them a little dry. By adding the extra milk it fluffed them up perfectly. Read More

These really are great muffins. I read all the other reviews and then made changes. I added a whole egg and 1/2c of vanilla yogurt. They turned out really moist and are perfect for breakfast. Read More

This is a good recipe for low fat muffins and it can be used with other berries. I prepared them with half white flour/half whole wheat flour and it turned out nice. Read More

I was a little scared when I finished making the batter because it was a VERY dry batter. But don't worry they turn out great. They were fluffy and a little bit like cake but had this great crunchy outside. They were really tasty. Read More
