Blueberry Oat Breakfast Muffin Recipe

Whether you are working from home during the coronavirus pandemic and need a tasty satisfying snack, or whether you are working at the office or running around organising the family, this recipe is certainly a crowd pleaser.

With lots of good ingredients, you’ll feel not only satisfied with the taste, but also knowing that you’ve fed your body some good nutrients.

Personally I enjoy a hot bowl of oats for breakfast but when I’m in the mood for food prepping, I resort to this simple recipe.

What is so healthy about this recipe?

• The main ingredient of this recipe is rolled oats, I chose protein oats which are a little bit higher in protein than usual rolled oats. But you can make this recipe with normal oats or your choice of oats. Oats are a great source of carbohydrates, which gives you energy throughout the day.
  
• This recipe uses honey instead of sugar for a natural sweetener.

• This recipe uses mixed berries which is a great source of antioxidants. Antioxidants fight free radicals in the body, helping to reduce the signs of ageing. Signs of ageing range from collagen breakdown in the skin, causing wrinkles, to the oxidation of cholesterol, causing cardio vascular disease.
