When the local library ladies asked me to send them the recipe for the muffins that I'd brought to story time, I realized I'd created something special. They were enjoyed by the kids and adults alike. Delicious and wholesome, the coconut, banana, and flax add a little something extra to the boring old blueberry muffin.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats

  • 1 cup ground flax seed

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • cup sweetened flaked coconut

  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 ½ cups mashed ripe banana

  • 1 cup sour cream

  • ½ cup applesauce

  • ½ cup melted butter

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 24 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.

  2. Whisk together flour, oats, flax, sugar, coconut, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.

  3. Whisk together bananas, sour cream, applesauce, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla in a large bowl. Stir flour mixture into banana mixture just until all dry ingredients are moistened; fold in blueberries. Fill muffin cups 2/3 full.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
