Ingredients

• Ingredients Units USM Scale 1x2x3x 2 cups flour (all-purpose, spelt, white whole wheat or combo) 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon mineral salt 3/4 cup organic pure cane or turbinado sugar 1 cup unsweetened almond milk* 1/3 cup olive oil (or fruit infused olive oil: lemon or orange)** 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 1/2 – 2 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen*** optional garnish a few extra blueberries sprinkle of cane sugar

Preparation

• Instructions Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix wet ingredients: In a 2 cup measuring cup, add the milk, sugar, oil, and vanilla, stir to combine a few times to help soften the large grains of sugar. Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder and salt. Combine wet & dry: Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and mix until just combined. Don’t overmix, overmixing the batter tends to make the muffins less tender. Add blueberries: Toss in the fresh or frozen blueberries and gently fold them into the batter. Scoop: Fill each muffin-lined hole with batter. For uniformity, fill muffin tin using a 1/4 measuring cup or large ice cream scooper to scoop up the batter and pour into the muffin holes. Topping: Optionally, add a few strategic blueberries on top and sprinkle the top with a little pure cane sugar or raw sugar. The sugar will add a nice crunch to the tops! Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes. Let cool a few minutes and enjoy warm or at room temperature. Makes 12 muffins Storing: Counter & Fridge: Once completely cooled, store the muffins with a paper towel underneath and overtop in a container on the counter for up to 3 – 4 days. The paper towels will soak up moisture and keep them from getting too moist, losing their delicious crunchy top. They are also fine loosely covered for 1 – 2 days. Or store in the refrigerator for up to a week. Freezer: Once completely cooled, wrap muffins individually and store them in a freezer-safe container or baggie for up to 2 months. When ready to eat let thaw to room temperature.
