- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners or lightly spray with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, oat bran, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
Step 3
In a separate medium-sized bowl, combine the applesauce, milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Stir until well mixed.
Step 4
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6
Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 8
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
