Oatmeal Walnut Muffins

Submitted by Deb Wolf

"This is a very moist muffin. Easy and quick to make. Always gets requests for the recipe. I put walnuts and brown sugar on my morning oatmeal, so I thought 'why not incorporate them into a muffin recipe'?"

 

• Ready In: 30mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Yields: 12-13 muffins
• Serves: 12

ingredients

• 2 eggs, at room temperature
• 1⁄2 cup canola oil
• 1 cup cooked oatmeal, at room temperature
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup flour
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup walnuts, chopped

directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Place paper liners in each of 12 muffin cups.
3. Whisk eggs well, then whisk in oil, oatmeal and vanilla.
4. In another bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder and baking soda until there are no more lumps of brown sugar. Add walnuts and toss to coat.
5. Add liquid mixture and fold in, just until the dry ingredients are moistened.
6. Spoon into muffin cups, filling 3/4 full. An ice cream scoop works well for this. You may have enough batter for a 13th muffin.
7. Bake 18 - 20 minutes or until they test done. Allow to cool 10 minutes in the muffin pan, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
8. These freeze well.

Very good. I used mini chocolate chips and baked them as mini-muffins for 15 minutes. They came out great. Thanks for posting.
