How to Make Low Fat Oatmeal Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats and 1 cup milk. Let soak for at least 30 minutes (or up to 1 hour for extra soft muffins).
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ cup granulated sugar.
  4. Add the soaked oats and milk mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir in 1 egg, ½ cup unsweetened applesauce, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in your choice of mix-ins: ½ cup raisins, 1 cup chopped apples, or ½ cup chocolate chips.
  6. Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
