Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup Low-fat milk
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.3 cup Honey
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Peaches (fresh or canned, diced)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Let them soak for 10 minutes while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the applesauce, honey, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Stir the soaked oats into the wet ingredients until evenly combined.
Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just until combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure tender muffins.
Gently fold in the diced peaches, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your healthy, low-fat peachy oatmeal muffins! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
