• Easy
• One Bowl
• Moist
• Warm
• Loaded with blueberry
• Full of flavors
• Made from scratch

Ingredients

Flour – To make this super-soft, light, and fluffy, we use all-purpose flour, however, you can try it with other flours like whole wheat flour for a healthier alternative, but it won’t have the same lightness as the all-purpose flour version.

Blueberry – Fresh or frozen anything can be used in this recipe but I will recommend fresh ones for that juicy texture.

Eggs – 2 large eggs are required but if you want to make it eggless you can skip eggs and use 1 cup more yogurt.

Yogurt –Yogurt moistens and softens the cake. You may use buttermilk or sour cream instead of yogurt.

Date Syrup – It’s very healthy or you can replace them with maple syrup too. If you do not get both then use 1/2 cup brown sugar or sugar.

Vanilla Extract – For this, use a good quality extract vanilla extract. Poor-quality vanilla extract can hamper the taste of your muffins.

Others – Additionally, you will need some basic cake ingredients like baking powder and baking soda, which combine to leave the cake extra light and fluffy.

Dark Chocolate – Dark chocolate imparts the flavor these muffins should have.

Note – If you are allergic to eggs or vegetarian, you can replace them with a ground flax meal instead. Replace the eggs with 2 tablespoons ground flax meal and 6 tablespoons warm water. 

Variations

In this recipe, whole wheat flour can be substituted for all-purpose flour.

Replace 1/2 cup of flour with 3/4 cup of oatmeal to make Dark chocolate Blueberry Oats Muffin.

You can even substitute some flour with bran for a healthy spin. However, you can use any gluten-free flour in place of all-purpose flour and make these muffins gluten-free.

Adding crunch to the batter with pecans, walnuts, macadamia nuts, almonds, etc.

Use maple syrup or brown sugar instead of date syrup. I prefer maple syrup.

Instead of muffin cups, bake the batter in a bread pan and make chocolate blueberry oats bread.

For a recipe without eggs, replace the eggs with yogurt or flax seeds.

Instead of dark chocolate chunks, add chocolate chips to the batter.

How to make Dark Chocolate Blueberry Oats Muffin recipe step by step with photo:

1. Preheat your oven to 350ºF (176ºC) and prepare a muffin pan by lining the cavities with parchment liners or spraying them with cooking spray. Set aside. Do not worry If you do not have an oven or microwave. (I made them in a big Pan also so I put some salt in a pan and cover it then preheat it for 5 minutes on high flame. Then put the baking tray and bake for 20 minutes on low flame). It will have the same result as an oven.
   
2. Take a mixing bowl and crack eggs and then lightly beat them. Whisk in the yogurt, bananas, date syrup, and vanilla extract, mixing until it is smooth. Note: If you are allergic to eggs or vegetarian, you can replace them with ground flax meal instead. Replace the eggs with 2 tablespoons ground flax meal and 6 tablespoons warm water.
   
   
3. Now add the oats, and cinnamon powder, then put a sieve in the bowl and add All-purpose flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Now shift and if have any big particles then discard them. Now mix everything until well combined.
   
   
   
   
4. Finally, add the blueberries and dark chocolate chunks, and save some to sprinkle on top of the muffins. I have added some extra dried blueberries also for flavor and as I love blueberries very much it’s completely optional. Combine well.
   
   
5. Divide the batter with a spoon or ice cream scooper evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling almost to the top. and sprinkle them with saved dark chocolate chunks and blueberries.
   
6. Bake in the oven or big pan for 21-23 minutes, or until the tops of the muffins begin to turn golden brown insert a toothpick in the center and if it comes out clean then it’s ready. Note: Preheat your oven to 350ºF (176ºC) and prepare a muffin pan by lining the cavities with parchment liners or spraying them with cooking spray. Set aside. Do not worry If you do not have an oven or microwave. (I made them in a big Pan also so I put some salt in a pan and cover it then preheat it for 5 minutes on high flame. Then put the baking tray and bake for 20 minutes on low flame). It will have the same result as an oven.
7. Allow the muffins to cool and then transfer them to a plate.

Important Suggestion To Keep In Mind

• If you’re using Greek yogurt, start with 1/2 cup milk and add another 2-4 tablespoons, if the batter feels too dry.
• If you are allergic to eggs or vegetarian, you can replace them with a ground flax meal instead. Replace the eggs with 2 tablespoons ground flax meal and 6 tablespoons warm water.
• A wooden spoon should be used to stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl until they are combined.
• Heat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line muffins tin with paper or spray with oil. 
• Bake for 16-18 minutes, or until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean. Remove.
• If you prefer, you can use 1/2 cup (60 g) whole wheat and 1/2 cup (60 g) all-purpose bread mix.
• Mix 1 tablespoon (7.5 grams) of flour in frozen berries to prevent them from leaking or sinking to the bottom of the muffin.
• If you over-mix the batter after adding the flour, they will turn out hard.
• In the batter, you can add nuts of your choice.
