How to Make Kumquat Breakfast Muffins

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
Clean and halve 1 cup of kumquats (about 8-10 medium).
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup rolled oats, ½ cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, ½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy), and ¼ cup vegetable oil.
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
Stir in the halved kumquats and ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional).
Fill each muffin liner about ¾ full using an ice cream scoop or spoon. The batter will be slightly runny.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
