Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 180°C 20 minutes before baking your muffins. Line 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners and set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine old fashioned oats and buttermilk. Let mixture sit out at room temperature for 20 minutes.

Step 3

In a large bowl, mix together dry ingredients (whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and brown sugar).

Step 4

Mix in the oat and buttermilk mixture along with the apple sauce and egg. Mix well until no lumps remain in the batter.

Step 5

Pour batter into prepared muffins tin. Do not fill more that ¾ full.

Step 6

Bake for 30 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 7

Allow to cool at room temperature and enjoy!

Tips

Step 8

If your muffin cups are filled more than ¾ full the muffins will have flat “flying saucer” tops. Leaving a little extra room will give your muffins plenty of space to expand before reaching the top.
