Blueberry Muffins With Almond Streusel image

These muffins are loaded with essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidents, plus heart friendly monounsaturated fat from the almonds and canola oil. These freeze well up to a month. Microwave frozen muffins at High for 15 seconds. We like these especially since the recipe calls for whole wheat flour and oatmeal. Adaped from Cooking Light
