Healthy Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins

Submitted by This Mom Still Cooks

"Mmmmm...yummy breakfast or snack that has texture, flavor, and a healthy kick. A big thanks to Aunt Carolyn for the original recipe I modified this one from. These are the exact ingredients I used, thanks to a wonderful local bulk foods store. If you need to use more typical ingredients, I've tried to note potential alternatives. Don't omit the little bit of oil, though - it will dry them out."
