honey-oatmeal muffins with pecans and dried blueberries

this is from artvoice, a local paper, and it's pretty good and healthy.

2/3 cup milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil (i subsituted apple sauce)
1 large egg, beaten
1/4 cup honey
1 1/2 cups quick or old-fashioned oatmeal, uncooked
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup dried blueberries (i used craisins)
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1 Tbs baking powder
3/4 tsp salt

preheat oven to 400.

combine the milk, vegetable oil (or applesauce), egg and honey in a medium sized bowl and mix together. in another bowl, mix together the oatmeal, flour, dried blueberries, pecans, sugar, baking powder and salt. combine the contents of both bowls together and stir until the ingredients are just combined. spoon the batter into 12 greased muffins tins. be sure to only fill the tins 2/3 full. bake the muffins for 15-18 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick pulls out clean.
