Energizing Oat Bran Muffins

#NOWAmbassador, National Champion and Olympic Figure Skater Bradie Tennell preps a weekly batch of these Energizing Lemon Blueberry Oat Bran Muffins to fuel her before intense training sessions on the ice. 

Note: The recipe is adapted from fraicheliving.com, using NOW ingredients where possible.

Ingredients
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 ⅓ cups Oat Bran, Organic
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1 cup milk
½ cup vanilla or lemon yogurt
2 tablespoons grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla
⅓ cup Manuka Honey
½ cup melted butter
2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries or part fresh plums
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a large muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, oat bran, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together all of the remaining ingredients except the blueberries.
  4. Mix the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold together until just mixed. Fold in the frozen blueberries.
  5. Using an ice cream scoop, divide the muffin batter among the lined tins (it makes 18 muffins so you may need to do this in two batches if you don’t have two tins) and bake for approximately 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean with no crumbs.
