Healthy Blueberry Muffin with Bran
New additions to your blueberry muffin recipe make them healthy yet still tasty. In baked goods, flaxseed adds tenderness and moisture and replaces some of the added fat. Use a flexible spatula or wooden spoon to combine wet and dry ingredients, and gently fold in the berries to avoid crushing.
