Ingredients

• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 1 cup Milk
• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 large Egg
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, or grease the muffin cups with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Let them soak for 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, brown sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Stir the soaked oats and milk mixture into the wet ingredients until fully incorporated.

Step 6

Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, being careful not to overmix. The batter will be slightly lumpy, which is fine.

Step 7

Evenly distribute the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
