Original recipe yields 3 dozen mini-muffins

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly coat muffin pans with nonstick cooking spray, set aside.
In a mixing bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the center of flour mixture, set aside.
In a separate bowl, stir together egg whites, orange juice, oil and vanilla. Add egg white mixture all at once to the flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Fold in blueberries. Spoon into prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden and toothpick inserted into centers comes out clean. Cool slightly before removing from pans. Serve warm with butter.

"Very healthful (little oil or sugar) but lacking a moist, "muffiny" flavor...." See more"

"This is a delicious recipe. I did change it a little bit though, I used half whole wheat flour and half white, and instead of just blueberries I used a frozen field berry mix, (blueberries, strawberri..." See morees, raspberries and blackberries) It turned out increadibly moist and stayed soft for quite awhile. Absolutly wonderful recipe"
