Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 0.5 cup Optional: raisins or chopped nuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tray with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to soften the oats.
While the oats are soaking, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Once the oats have soaked, stir in the brown sugar, melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and honey until well combined.
Gradually fold in the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, being careful not to overmix. If using raisins or nuts, gently fold them in at this stage.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
