Oatmeal Raisin Muffins

Yep, here I am again with oats.  You are likely thinking that my alias is The Crazy Oatmeal Lady.  Seriously, I love oats.  It's my preferred grain.  I just love the flavor! Anyhow, here is a low-sugar oatmeal raisin muffin - made with honey and no oil.  Not crazy about raisins?  Substitute chocolate chips or craisins etc.  These are perfect for brunch, a snack or a breakfast on the go!  Light and fluffy, you will be sure to enjoy.

Oatmeal Raisin Muffins

Serves 12

Ingredients:

1 Cup Old-Fashioned Oats

1 Cup All Purpose Flour

1 Tablespoon Baking Powder

3/4 Teaspoon Salt

1 Teaspoon Cinnamon

1/2 Cup Raisins

1/3 Cup Applesauce

1/4 Cup Honey

1 Teaspoon Vanilla

1 Egg

1 Cup Milk

Step 1:  Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.  Prepare your muffin tin by spraying really well with oil or by lining it with paper muffin cups.

Step 2:  In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients:  oats, flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and raisins.  Mix well.  Set aside.

Step 3:  In a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients: applesauce, honey, vanilla, egg and milk.  Stir until well combined.  

Step 4:  Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.  

Step 5:  Disperse the batter evenly among the muffin tin.  Place in the oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
