Healthy Oatmeal Muffins Recipe
These brown sugar muffins are a dump-everything-all-at-once-into-one-bowl-and-stir recipe — my favorite kind. The muffins are very soft, moist, and super springy. Plus, they have wonderful chewiness, and great texture thanks in part to the oats. But there’s no oil or butter, no dairy, and just 1/4 cup of dark brown sugar in the entire batch. Really. I used Silk Unsweetened Vanilla Almondmilk, and it’s tied with Silk’s newer Unsweetened Cashewmilk as my two favorite milks for baking. Very low in calories, high in calcium and protein, very smooth, and irresistibly creamy. I get great results every time. I honestly couldn’t believe how much flavor these skinny muffins packed given the very small amount of sugar. They’re a perfect grab-and-go breakfast or snack, and they freeze well so you can make a double batch and pull them out as needed!
What’s in Healthy Oatmeal Muffins?
To make these healthy breakfast muffins, you’ll need:
Egg – I haven’t tested this recipe with flax eggs or chia seed eggs and can’t guarantee your results if you do All-purpose flour Rolled oats Silk Unsweetened Vanilla Almondmilk – You’re also welcome to use another milk (dairy or non-dairy), if desired. Just be sure to use an unsweetened milk, otherwise your healthy oatmeal muffins will taste far too sweet Sugar-free pancake syrup Dark brown sugar Silk Vanilla Dairy-Free Yogurt – You can substitute with your favorite Greek yogurt or lite sour cream if that’s what you keep on hand. If using plain yogurt, I recommend adding a splash of vanilla extract Baking powder Baking soda Salt
