Baked Oatmeal Muffins!

May 20, 2008

This recipe is credited to my mom who suggested that I make baked oatmeal in mini muffin tins so that they will be even easier to grab and eat on the go… My mom and dad have become addicted to these, so I think this will be a weekly recipe that I will have to bake! However I am going to alternate my choice of fruit… instead of apple + raisins, you could use bananas, pumpkin, etc…

  • 2 Cups of Oats
  • 2 Tsp Light Brown Sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 3 Tsp Vanilla Extract
  • Half a chopped/diced apple
  • 50 Raisins
  • 1 Cup Skim Milk
  • 1 Tsp Baking Powder
  • 2 Tbsp Cinnamon

It’s a very simple recipe… Just mix the dry ingredients (all except for brown sugar) separately then mix the wet ingredients separately… Combine both together and mix until well combined! Pour into muffin tins and bake until semi-golden on top (I let mine “golden” aka brown a little too long!) @ 350 degrees (approximately 12-15 minutes). When almost done, sprinkle the brown sugar on top and put on broil for a few minutes to let the brown sugar caramelize a bit… This recipe makes 12 Mini Muffins, which I estimated at 77 calories each…

This is a healthy, yet yummy, light, moist muffin!

    oh question! what kinds of oats did you use? instant? old fashioned? steel cut (doesn’t look like steel cut from the pic)

    …What do you preheat your oven to? I have all the ingredients ready to go but im afraid i might burn them XD im gonna try 350 and then bake them for about 15 minutes and see if that works. but it smells really good! I cant wait to eat these.

    Kelly ~ Hi! Ooops, I can’t believe i forgot the temp/time on this recipe! I baked them for 350 degrees for about 12 mins I believe (until I put a cake tester in and it came out clean), the time probably depends on your oven though… may be more or less… good luck!

    I know this is a random comment on an old post, but I just wanted to let you know I am so excited about this recipe. I am making it this weekend with the bunch of bananas that are at the end of their rope.

    New comment on old post! I stumbled across your site last week, then made these muffins over the weekend for my parent’s. The Dad was more than pleased! Thanks for a healthy and deliciously perfect go-to breakfast recipe!
