Blueberries are tiny powerhouses of nutrition and eating more of them can be an easy way to get the antioxidants necessary to fend off many different diseases. While blueberries are nutritional allies, they also happen to taste delicious, whether it’s all on their own or mixed into various cereals or baked goods. This take on muffins pairs blueberries with whole grains and chips for a go-to breakfast or any-time-of-day snack. Enjoy “Blueberry Bran Chocolate Chip Muffins” from “The Brain Boosting Diet” (Whitecap) by Norene Gilletz and Edward Wein, PhD. This make-ahead batter yields a big batch, but leftover batter can be refrigerated up to three weeks, so feel free to bake up as many or as few muffins as you’d like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blueberry Bran Chocolate Chip Muffins<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Makes 30 muffins<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 cups all-bran cereal
\u2153 cup canola oil
\u2153 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 cup hot tea
2 large eggs
2 tbsp. lemon juice, plus enough milk (skim or 1%) to equal 2 cups
\u00bd cup firmly packed brown sugar
\u00bd cup molasses or honey
2 \u00bd cups whole wheat flour
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
Zest of 1 orange
1 \u00bd cups fresh or frozen blueberries
\u00bd to \u00be cup chocolate chips (semisweet or sugar-free)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. In a very large mixing bowl, combine bran with oil and yogurt. Pour hot tea over the mixture and let stand for 5 minutes. Stir well. Add eggs, milk mixture, brown sugar, and molasses. Stir until combined. Add flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix until blended. Stir in orange zest, blueberries, and chocolate chips, just until combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Either let batter stand for 30 minutes, until thickened, or cover and refrigerate for up to three weeks. Preheat oven to 375 F. Spray compartments of a muffin pan (or muffin pans) with nonstick spray. Scoop batter into the muffin pan(s), filling each compartment about two-thirds full. Bake 22 to 25 minutes, or until tops spring back when lightly touched.
