Ingredients

• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 1 cup All-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour)
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt (non-fat)
• 0.25 cup Honey (or maple syrup)
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup Fresh blueberries (or semi-sweet chocolate chips)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, honey, applesauce, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix as this can make the muffins dense.

Step 5

Fold in the blueberries or chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. The tops should be lightly golden brown.

Step 8

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve and enjoy your healthy low-fat oatmeal muffins as a snack or breakfast!
