Preparation

  2. In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, and applesauce. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the oats to soften.
  3. In another bowl, mix together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined. If using, fold in any optional ingredients such as nuts or dried fruits.
Baking
  1. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  2. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  3. Allow to cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

These muffins can be enhanced with almond butter or maple syrup. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or freeze for longer storage.
