Deliciously healthy muffins made with whole wheat flour and oats, perfect for busy mornings or as a nutritious snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup oats
  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/2 cup milk (or plant-based milk)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup mix-ins (e.g., blueberries, chocolate chips, nuts)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until well mixed.
  3. In another bowl, combine the honey (or maple syrup), applesauce, milk, and egg. Mix until well blended.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined—be careful not to overmix!
  5. Fold in your choice of mix-ins; this is where your creativity can shine!
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

These muffins are versatile; feel free to swap honey for maple syrup or use your favorite plant-based milk. For best results, avoid overmixing the batter to keep muffins light and fluffy.
