Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the oats to soften.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In the bowl with the soaked oats, add the egg, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; itβs fine if the batter is slightly lumpy.
If adding chopped nuts or raisins, fold them into the batter at this stage.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 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 let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your hearty oatmeal muffins!
