Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) Active dry yeast
- 0.25 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large Egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons Honey
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes to allow the oats to soften.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, dissolve the active dry yeast in warm water. Add 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar and let sit for about 5 minutes, or until the mixture becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar.
Add the softened oat and milk mixture, the yeast mixture, melted butter, beaten egg, and honey to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and allow the batter to rise in a warm, draft-free place for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
Gently stir the batter to deflate it slightly, then divide it evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until they are golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. They pair wonderfully with butter, jam, or a drizzle of honey. Enjoy!
