Ingredients
1 cup (250ml) ROGERS Porridge Oats Steel Cut Oat blend
1 cup (250ml) water
¾ cup (180ml) buttermilk (I had no buttermilk, so made my own)

1 large egg
1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
¾ cup (180ml) packed brown sugar (I used raw brown sugar)
1 ¼ cups (300ml) All-purpose flour
½ tsp (2ml) baking soda
1 ½tsp (7ml) baking powder
½ tsp (2ml) salt

1 cup (250ml) blueberries (if frozen, do not thaw)
Method
Pour water over porridge oats in a bowl, stir. Let stand 10 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375F (190C)
In a medium bowl, combine porridge oats, buttermilk, melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and brown sugar.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
Stir in blueberries to coat.
Add wet ingredients to the flour mixture, stirring until just combined.
Spoon batter into muffin cups and bake 20-25 minutes
