Apple oatmeal muffins are good for you

We make our apple oatmeal muffins with old-fashioned oatmeal. Oatmeal is low in saturated fat and cholesterol but rich in fiber.

I hope you're not getting sleepy with reading this scientific stuff. But eating some form of oatmeal is a great way to start your day, plus it's a natural whole grain oat that helps keep your energy level high.

Now, for those people who have problems with gluten, whole grain oatmeal doesn't naturally contain gluten but it may have a small amount introduced in transportation or processing. Most people can eat the oats without problems.

If gluten is still a problem, there are brands of oatmeal sold as gluten-free,you can find a list here. This could be a good alternative for you.

We love using these silicone muffin pans. In fact we even take them along with us when we travel. They are light and if we don't have muffin cups we just lightly spray them with vegetable oil.We set both muffin pans on a baking tray for ease in taking in and out of the oven. I know you'll love them as much as we do.

Get Recipe Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 350 F.
  • Line muffin tins with muffin liners that are sprayed with cooking spray.
  • In a large bow add the brown sugar, eggs, melted coconut oil and whisk until smooth. Whisk in the milk, vanilla and when that is smooth add the apple chunks.
  • In another bowl combine the oatmeal, cinnamon, baking powder, whey protein powder, salt and mix until combined. Mix in the walnuts. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir to combine.
  • Fill the muffin cups to just below the top. As you scoop be sure to stir the ingredients so you get an even mix of oats and liquid in each muffin.
  • Bake for 30- 35 minutes. Cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.
  • Cool completely before storing in sealed container. We wrap each muffin in plastic wrap and then freeze in a zip-lock bag.
  • When ready to serve, remove the muffin paper and heat in microwave. They taste as if they were just baked.

Notes

If you're allergic to walnuts you may substitute almonds or eliminate the nuts.
*** Our protein scoop measures 1 oz. or 2 Tablespoons or ⅛ cup.
