Blueberry Oat Muffins

Hello friends! I hope your weekend is going well. I promised you my blueberry oat muffin recipe and here it is.

Made with blueberries and oatmeal, they are hearty and good for you. We all know how good blueberries are because they are full of antioxidants. Oatmeal is high in calcium and potassium and eaten on a daily basis can lower your blood pressure. So do try this recipe.

This is an old recipe. I found it years ago and it is the only blueberry muffin recipe I use.

Blueberry Oat Muffins

1 cup Robin Hood oats
1 cup buttermilk or sour milk
1 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp soda
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup melted butter
1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen, thawed and well drained.

Combine oats and *buttermilk in a small bowl. Let stand. Combine flour, baking powder, soda, salt and brown sugar. Stir well to blend. Add egg and melted butter to the oat mixture. Mix well. Add oat mixture all at once to dry ingredients. Stir just until all ingredients are moistened. Gently fold in blueberries. Fill well-greased muffin cups 3/4 full. 

Bake at 400 degrees for 15-22 minutes. Makes 1 dozen muffins. Enjoy!

* I make my own sour milk using a cup of milk mixed with a tablespoon of vinegar.

I usually double the recipe for two dozen and then I freeze some. 

Have a lovely Sunday and I hope to see you tomorrow for No Place Like Home. God bless you!

Lavender and Lace

Welcome friends to a Lavender and Lace tea. 

It is near the end of February and I thought I had better bring out my February teacup. This lovely Royal Albert Violets teacup was gifted to me by my hubby's aunt many years ago.

This is one of only three Flowers of the Month series teacups that I have. Like most of you teacup lovers, I would dearly love to find teacups for all my family members' birthdays but here on the Island they are very hard to come by.

My teapot, Pretty Pansies, you have all seen before and it looks nice with my teacups. When I see a pansy, it always looks like it is smiling; sweet little posies!

These teacups are made by Gracie China.

The matching plate to the teapot is also Pretty Pansies.

These are my Valentine roses which I dried and look what a lovely colour they are! They almost match the purple in my china although the camera has changed the colour somewhat. They really are more of a lavender hue.

The sweet lacy bag which is filled with lavender is as fresh as the day I received it from Kathy at A Delightsome Life.

The cameo I wore on my wedding day. A bit tarnished but dear. That day it was worn on a velvet ribbon around my neck.

I have made Blueberry oatmeal muffins for our tea. These are very moist and healthy too.
