Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins

For 12- to 18-month-olds.

Tossing frozen blueberries with flour before adding them to the batter keeps them from turning the batter purple while they bake. If you use fresh blueberries, skip that step. Serve 1/2 to 1 cooled muffin to your child.

Yield: 16 adult servings (serving size: 1 muffin)
