Berry Tasty Muffins

You will need: flour, 1 c. oatmeal, 3 tbsp. sugar, 1 tsp. salt, 4 tsp. baking powder, 1 c. blueberries, washed, 1 egg, 1 c. milk, 1/4 c. vegetable oil, nonstick cooking spray

Equipment and supplies:

oven (you’ll need help from your adult assistant)
mixing spoon
2 large bowls
fork
12 muffin/cupcake tin
paper muffin/cupcake liners
wire rack for cooling muffins
measuring cups and spoons

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, oatmeal, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
Mix in blueberries.
In another bowl, break the egg and use a fork to beat it just a little bit. Then add the milk and vegetable oil, and mix.
Add egg mixture to the dry ingredients in the large bowl.
Using a mixing spoon, mix about 25 or 30 times. Don’t mix too much! Your muffin mixture should be lumpy, not smooth.
Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly spray with nonstick spray. Spoon in the muffin mix. Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 of the way up.
Bake for about 20 minutes.
When muffins are finished baking, remove from muffin tin and cool them on a wire rack.
Enjoy your berry tasty muffins!
