Ingredients:

- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon margarine
- 1 cup flour
- 1 1/4 cups fresh blueberries
Instructions:
-
Prepare Ingredients: Begin by measuring the cereal into a mixing bowl and stirring in the milk. Allow it to sit for a few minutes to soften.
-
Combine Wet Ingredients: To the cereal and milk mixture, add baking powder, salt, sugar, almond extract, egg, and margarine. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
-
Incorporate Flour: Stir in the flour until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.
-
Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Prepare Muffin Cups: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare 12 muffin cups by spraying them well with Pam or lining them with muffin liners.
-
Fill Muffin Cups: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each one about two-thirds full.
-
Add Final Touch: If desired, sprinkle a little more sugar on top of each muffin for a delightful crunch and added sweetness.
-
Bake: Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Cool and Enjoy: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
These Blueberry Bran Muffins are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, but they can also be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days.
