Very simple and delicious muffins, full of oats and naturally sweet sultanas which are very quick and easy to put together. I’ve listed the original recipe below and given the options for Gluten Free in bold.
I found these muffins quite sweet so you can reduce the brown sugar if you like. They are perfect to take for lunch or to take to school.
Love this ever so easy recipe which uses a food processor to make and that’s it! If you don’t have a food processor, you could use a blender and I think it may also work in a Nutri Bullet.
It’s full of lovely oats which I’ve blitzed before proceeding so I basically have Oat Flour. It gives a better result once baked. It’s perfect to use up a couple of over ripe bananas and there’s no butter in the recipe. We use oil instead. Sunflower is good but equally, vegetable oil will work too. The last bit of good news is there’s no refined sugar either. It just keeps getting better! You can choose from honey, maple syrup or like me, use Agave Syrup.
I really love the combination of orange and cranberry. They just work so well together and as dried cranberries are easy to get, I always have a few packets in the cupboard to add to recipes. They are naturally lovely and sweet so it helps when reducing sugar quantities in whatever you’re making.
Quick and easy to make, these healthy oat muffins are a great standby for when you’re in a hurry and need something for breakfast that will keep you going for a while but not adding high calories and bad fats to your daily intake. I find them perfect for a mid afternoon snack.
I’ve tried this great muffin recipe with different flavour combinations and it was a given that apple and cinnamon would be one to try and wow, did it deliver! Everyone totally loved them.
As these Oat Muffins freeze so well, it’s a great recipe to make and keep for a quick and healthy breakfast or mid morning/afternoon snack to keep you going while at the same time they are low fat, full of fibre, protein, have no refined or processed sugar and taste amazing … it’s a win/win recipe! I’ve used gluten free oats so perfect for the coeliac in our house.
I found this US recipe from a blog called “She Likes Food” from Pinterest and liked the healthy take of baked oats with great flavours. It was simple enough to modify the recipe with healthy substitutes and from US imperial to metric measurements.
It’s a simple all in one bowl recipe which is always a bonus! I’ve also given both standard and gluten free versions so you can choose which suits you best.
It’s such a classic flavour combination of banana and peanut butter that I knew they would work out great and be a nice treat without too much guilt. They freeze really well so it’s handy to make two batches and have them for running out the door or when hunger suddenly hits mid afternoon!
A lovely healthy and nutritious version of a firm favourite using wholemeal instead of plain flour and healthy oats. The spices give a lovely flavour but you can leave them out if you want a plain muffin. For those on a dairy free eating plan, these are perfect as vegetable oil is used instead of butter. They are lovely and moist and not too sweet so perfect for on the go, a quick breakfast or great snack.
