Banana Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C. If your oven has a convection (fan) setting, use that and set the temperature to 350°F/180°C. Grease a 12-cup muffin pan or line with paper muffin liners.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.

Step 3

In another bowl, mash the banana with a fork. Put the egg, mashed banana, oatmeal, buttermilk and oil into a jug or bowl and whisk to combine.

Step 4

Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture, and stir to just combine. Gently fold in the blueberries.

Step 5

Divide the batter evenly between the wells of the prepared muffin tin. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of one of the muffins comes out clean, about 18-20 minutes. The muffins will look lightly browned and well risen.

Step 6

Remove the cooked muffins from the oven and turn onto a cooling rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Step 7

Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C, combination steam setting. If your oven has variable steam settings, choose 30% (if not, don’t worry! Just set to combi steam at the correct temperature and the oven will figure out the humidity for you). Grease a 12-cup muffin pan or line with paper muffin liners.
