Ingredients
Scale
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup milk
1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 large egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup add-ins (e.g., blueberries, chocolate chips, nuts)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
In a bowl, combine rolled oats and milk. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to soften the oats.
In another bowl, whisk together honey (or maple syrup), vegetable oil, and egg until well combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the oat mixture and stir until combined.
In a separate bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in your choice of add-ins.
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow to cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free oats and flour.
These muffins can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Feel free to experiment with different add-ins like dried fruits or spices.
