Oatmeal BOO-berry Muffins

I love blueberry muffins and thanks again to my Tita Lily, I have a lot of perfectly ripened, hand picked blueberries, frozen in my freezer. I have made blueberry muffins with cake flour and flax, this time I am using old fashion oats. I am still trying to stay away from too many "bad" carbs, so I am cutting the flour on this muffin and replacing with healthy oats!

Start with Old Fashion Oats

It's getting colder now and there's something about oatmeal that gives me warm fuzzies in the Fall. Halloween is coming and these little Boo-berry muffins are a great hearty treat to snack on with a hot cider! Mmmmmm...YUM!

Fresh out of the oven, mmm, smell that? YUM!

I made these muffins for my Friend Kelli. Kelli has a newborn baby girl, Quincy Grace.
