Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 F.
  2. Line two 12-cup muffin tins with 16 paper muffin liners.
  3. Mix the flours, oats, wheat germ, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a large mixing bowl.
  4. Mix the egg, yogurt, milk, and oil in a second bowl.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined (do not over-mix). Gently stir the blueberries into the batter.
  6. Scoop the batter into the muffin cups and fill them about 3/4 of the way full (you should have 16 muffins).
  7. Bake 18 to 20 minutes until muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes and then turn the muffins onto a rack and cool completely.
  9. Muffins can be served right away or frozen for later use.
Recipe Notes

1. I substituted oat bran for the wheat germ. I didn’t have any wheat germ on hand and I love the taste of oat bran (made it more like a bran muffin)
2. I used frozen wild blueberries, which are tiny but have a stronger blueberry flavor (yum), and are higher in antioxidants
3. You can make 12 big muffins and 12 mini-muffins or 16 big muffins
