- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon grated orange zest
- 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, if you prefer)
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your Blueberry Orange Yogurt Bran Muffins:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, bran cereal, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the yogurt, vegetable oil, egg, and orange zest until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.
- Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
