Ingredients

  • 1 cup quick oats
  • 1 cup milk of choice (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar (or lemon juice)
  • 1 cup flour (all-purpose, spelt, oat, or gluten-free)
  • ½ cup sugar (white, coconut, or sugar-free alternative)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg (or egg substitute)
  • ¼ cup oil, nut butter, or applesauce

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven
    • Preheat to 350°F (175°C).
    • Line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners or grease each cup.
  • Soak the Oats
    • In a bowl, mix oats, milk, and vinegar.
    • Let sit for 10 minutes to soften the oats.
  • Mix Dry Ingredients
    • In another bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  • Combine Wet Ingredients
    • Add vanilla, egg, and oil/nut butter/applesauce to the oat mixture.
    • Stir until well combined.
  • Make the Batter
    • Gently fold in the dry ingredients until just combined.
    • Do not overmix.
  • Portion & Bake
    • Divide batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
    • Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Cool & Serve
    • Let muffins cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
    • Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Gluten-Free: Use certified gluten-free oats and a gluten-free flour blend.
  • Vegan Option: Replace egg with a flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 3 tbsp water).
  • Make It Sweeter: Add honey, maple syrup, or extra sugar if desired.
  • Storage: Keep at room temperature for 2 days, refrigerate for 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • Serving Tip: Reheat in the microwave for 10-15 seconds for a fresh-from-the-oven taste.
