Healthier Blueberry Oat Bran Coffeecake Muffins image

These are healthi-ER muffins, yet very satisfying! The recipe is from my Betty Crocker cookbook, but I modified it slightly to improve the taste. Hope you enjoy! Note that cooking times may vary. I used my apartment gas oven, which bakes things very quick. The cooking time in this recipe is from the Betty Crocker cookbook. Alter as you see fit.
