Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Prepare muffin tins with muffin cup liners.
In a large bowl, combine the oats, whole wheat flour, wheat germ, baking powder and baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon
In a medium bowl, beat the egg, apple sauce, vanilla extract, and sugar together.
Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and stir.
Fold in the blueberries.
Pour into the muffin tins, filling 3/4 full.
Push a few extra blueberries into the top of the muffin, then top with turbinado sugar!
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean.
I also like to broil for 1-2 minutes just before taking them out, to get a crisper top!
