Oat muffins with blueberries

Oatmeal blueberry muffins are a delicious alternative to traditional muffins that have become popular in many regions of Latin America and the world. Their origin dates back to North America, where oats and blueberries are common ingredients and are an essential part of healthy breakfasts and snacks. In countries like Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia, these muffins are often prepared with local variations, and are sometimes called "oatmeal panquecitos" or simply "fruit muffins." The combination of oats and blueberries provides a perfect balance of flavor and nutrition, making this recipe ideal for those looking for tasty and healthy options.

In other Latin American countries, although the term "muffin" is generally recognized and used, they are also referred to as "bizcochitos" or "small cakes," depending on the context and region. The popularity of these muffins is due to their easy preparation, their fluffy texture, and the fresh and tangy touch that blueberries add. Furthermore, oats are valued for their digestive and energetic benefits, which makes this recipe a highly appreciated option, especially for those who engage in physical activity or lead an active lifestyle.
