Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional, e.g., walnuts or pecans)
- 0.5 cup Dried fruit (optional, e.g., raisins or cranberries)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the oats to soften.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and brown sugar, breaking up any clumps of sugar.
Add the melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract to the oat and milk mixture. Stir until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold everything together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
If using chopped nuts or dried fruit, fold them into the batter 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 into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
