Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare two 12-cup muffin tins with grease or liners. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until well combined. (5 minutes)

03

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the canola oil, applesauce, sugar, eggs, and water until smooth. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Gently fold in the fresh blueberries and shredded beets until evenly distributed throughout the batter. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. (25-30 minutes)

08

Step

Let the muffins cool in the tins for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider using brown sugar instead of white sugar.
If you don't have fresh blueberries, frozen blueberries can be used. Do not thaw. You may need to add a couple more minutes of baking time.
Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
