Instructions:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats (both 3/4 cup and 1/4 cup), whole-grain wheat flour, whey protein powder, baking soda, and sugar. Stir well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
In another bowl, whisk together the egg whites, vanilla extract, and olive oil until well combined.
Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until everything is just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; the batter should be slightly lumpy but without large dry pockets.
Gently fold in the frozen blueberries. Ensure they are well distributed throughout the batter without over-mixing.
Using a spoon or a scoop, divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Fill each cup about 3/4 full for optimal muffin size and shape.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the muffin tin from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for about 5 minutes. Then, carefully transfer the muffins from the tin to the rack to cool completely.
